With the ongoing rollout of new Localities community planning structures across the city, the future of Neighbourhood Partnerships has been in some doubt but they are back for now – at least until a suitable replacement can be agreed.

Neighbourhood Partnership meetings are open to the public, so take the opportunity to hear discussions and decisions about Local Community Grant Fund applications, North West Locality Improvement Planning, participate in the popular ‘question time’ session and more.

There are four Neighbourhood Partnerships within the new North West Locality and each of these will meet in August. Dates are:

Forth Neighbourhood Partnership

Tuesday 15 August at Royston Wardieburn Community Centre, 6.30-8.30pm

Inverleith Neighbourhood Partnership
