Panellists announced for Crawley Question Time 2024

The decision-makers who will answer residents’ questions at Crawley Question Time have been announced.

The event – now in its 19th year – takes place from 7pm to 9pm on Wednesday 20 March in the Town Hall and gives people an opportunity to ask questions about topics important to them.

Crawley Question Time is an independently-chaired general debate and discussion. There are no set topics so attendees can raise any areas or concerns for discussion, such as community safety, planning, health, Gatwick Airport, parking, the economy and so much more!

This year’s panel will be:

• Councillor Michael Jones, Leader of Crawley Borough Council
• Councillor Atif Nawaz, Deputy Leader of Crawley Borough Council and Cabinet member for Planning and Economic Development
• Councillor Duncan Crow, Leader of the Opposition at Crawley Borough Council and West Sussex County Council Cabinet member for Community Support, Fire and Rescue
• Chief Inspector Ben Starns, Crawley Police
• A representative from the NHS in West Sussex
• Jake Picknell, Crawley Youth Mayor

The event is open to everyone; the public, business leaders and partner organisations. The views and comments expressed will help the council and others to plan work on improving services and the town in general.
