About us
The WCSSG was originally formed to replace the Sellafield Local Liaison Committee (SLLC). The change reflected the fact that there were several nuclear licensed sites in the area and was intended to emphasise the importance of engagement with the community, encouraging input in discussions and consultations from all stakeholders. The organisation and ownership of sites has since changed and the WCSSG has changed to correspond, with re-organisation of its sub-committees, but the aim remains the same.
