Neighbourhood Champions

Would you like to make the Abbey area even better?  Do you like to get to know your neighbours? Would you like to get out and about in your street or neighbourhood?

Then becoming an Abbey People Neighbourhood Champion might be just the thing. 

Neighbourhood Champions will have a small patch which covers your street, flats or part of your neighbourhood.  You'll put leaflets through the doors of your neighbours, get to know people and be a contact point for people where you live.   You can do as much or as little as you want, we think people will spend about 3-4 hours per month.  You'll be able to earn Time Credits for this if you want. 

As you get stuck in, you might be able to have street-party, tidy up an area that needs it, or maybe just carry on being a point of contact and friendly face. 

If this sounds like something you might like to do, please come along to our training on Friday 8th May at 9:30 am at the Community Wing at Abbey Meadows School. Contact Nicky for more information or to book your place. 

We'll be having more training sessions, so if you are interested but can't do that date, please still get in touch.
