Good Neighbourhood Agreement

THE first Good Neighbourhood Agreement was launched on Sunday 15th June in Grovehill and was a resounding success. Councillors, the police, fire brigade, local residents association and council staff all attended the event.

We set up a gazebo on the amenity green and had face painting, hat making, plant pot decorating and much more. Over 100 residents visited us. throughout the day and over 70 signed up to the agreement. Signed declarations are still coming in.

We intend to keep working with Grovehill residents and are in the process of setting up a Halloween workshop for adults and children during the half term holiday.
