The City of London supports the development of strong communities in neighbourhoods across the city. We offer community building resources to help residents and resident-led groups share information, support one another and develop a stronger sense of community.
Strong neighbourhood associations build community and promote health and well-being in a variety of ways. We value volunteer efforts by dedicated residents to improve their neighbourhoods.
Dedicated residents are the heart of change in neighbourhoods, and we offer a variety of supports for the first three meetings for new or re-emerging neighbourhood associations. This includes group meeting supports.
Contact the Neighbourhood Development Support team tools and information for neighbourhood volunteers to organize and maintain an effective association.

Please note - Comparability of Data: caution should be used when comparing NHS data (2011) to long-form census data (1996, 2001, 2006 and 2016), especially when it comes to data for small geographies due to a difference in data collection methodologies employed by Statistics Canada.
