The ins and outs of residents' groups

What is a residents’ group?

Residents’ groups are established to provide support and assistance for the people within a community. While members may join for different reasons, they all share a common vision that their locality can be enhanced in some way.

Below is a list of the residents’ groups in the Hagley/Ferrymead area. If you are interested in joining one please contact the person listed.
