Town Hall Opens Free Advice Sessions for New Residents
The town hall has opened free advice sessions for new residents, offering practical help with housing, schools, health services and local transport. The weekly sessions will be staffed by council workers and volunteers, who can answer questions in plain language and point people towards the right services. Officials said moving to a new town can be confusing, especially for families, and that early advice can prevent small problems from becoming serious ones. The sessions will also include information about libraries, sports clubs, community groups and volunteering, so that new arrivals can settle in and meet people quickly. Interpreters will be available on some days, and written guides will be provided for those who prefer to read at home. Community leaders welcomed the service, saying that a friendly first contact makes a lasting difference. The council will review attendance and feedback after a few months and may extend the sessions if demand remains high.
