Caring for Our Community is a group of citizen’s from Flin Flon, Creighton and Denare Beach who are concerned about the current crime situation in Flin Flon and the surrounding area.

They held another meeting at Council Chambers last night and one of the people who is helping organize things, Ben McCutcheon explains what this group is looking to accomplish. “We want to find solutions and not per se just finger pointing. We want proactive, meaningful solutions. So, we’re just starting out and so the other day we had a meeting with Allison Dallas-Funk and Mike Slipp and that was with me and Karen. We talked about a few things, like changing the wording of the MOU that we have going on, that would open up some funding and grant streaming.”

They meet with members of City Council regularly and had a chance recently to meet with members from the Canadian Centre for Safer Communities.

Caring For Our Community meet the first and fourth Monday of the month at Council Chambers starting at 7pm, these meetings are open to any members of the public who would like to come out and share ideas, make suggestions or just listen.
