a say about what they would like to see happen there. WISH
- West end Is Safer and Healthier – is a Community Council-led
initiative that aims to get local people involved in improving their community.
A recent survey among community groups revealed what people think is
good and not so good about the West End. Now the results will be announced at a family fun event where residents
