The panel is designed to be representative of the district and we have residents taking part from all over the district of West Lindsey.
What does the Citizens Panel Do?
Each year, our panel members are asked to take part in a number of consultations. Different types of consultation are undertaken such as surveys or focus groups although each individual member of the panel can choose which consultations they wish to take part in.
Previous surveys undertaken have looked at residents priorities, their views on how the council might explore efficiencies and how the council might fund key services. Results from these surveys can be found under the previous consultation page and within our committee reports.
Can I join the Citizens Panel?
Yes. Anyone can join the West Lindsey Citizen Panel as long as you meet the following criteria:
- you are a resident of West Lindsey
- you are 16 years of age or over
Every one to two years the West Lindsey Citizens panel is refreshed by up to a third, to make sure that it remains representative of the local population and to give as many members of the community as possible the opportunity to take part. The breakdown of the current panel can be viewed on the downloads tab.
