Neighbour Day
Sunday 26 March is Neighbour Day
Getting involved in Neighbour Day events provides an opportunity to shift the tide from social isolation to social connection, through building respectful relationships and connected communities. Social isolation and loneliness can affect any person at any stage of life and having strong community connections can be life changing.
Be part of Neighbour Day this year. Introduce yourself to your neighbour, have a street coffee morning, or check in on vulnerable neighbours in your community.
