We are looking to establish an adhoc group which may provide a forum for people to express their views, and as a way forward to lobby for more public input on the decision-making process for issues affecting our neighbourhood. Contact
A geographical community is a group of people living and/or working in the same physical area, such as a neighbourhood. This type of community is characterized by:
Shared Location: Members live in close proximity, which facilitates face-to-face interactions and fosters a sense of place.
Common Interests and Goals: People often share similar concerns and objectives related to their local environment, such as safety, education, and infrastructure.
Social Relationships: Regular interactions and mutual support among residents help build strong social bonds.
Collective Identity: The shared experiences and cultural practices of the community contribute to a collective identity and sense of belonging.
Geographical communities play a crucial role in providing social support, fostering local culture, and addressing common issues through collective action. – https://www.lawinsider.com/dictionary/geographic-community
