Community forums

Our forums and working groups are a way for local people to hear about key issues related to the construction of Sizewell C. Having launched in January 2024, there are four main forums, which will cover all the main project-related issues and opportunities relevant to the community.

If you have any questions about the project that you’d like to raise through the forums, you can simply send these to your local parish or town council.

If you have a general query that you would like to discuss with us, please click below for info on how you can contact us.
