Thinking of holding a block party?

Neighbourhood block parties are a great way to meet and develop relationships with your neighbours. Block parties strengthen community spirit, build connections within the community and create brand new friendships. During public consultation for the new Social Framework, 87.5% of respondents believe it is important to experience a sense of belonging and connection to others.
