The evening is being organised jointly in conjunction with Burnham-On-Sea.com and on behalf of the churches in the area for the community. It will be chaired by local resident Alex Turco.
In order to ensure that as wide a range of issues as possible can be discussed, residents are asked to submit questions before the meeting.
