Walking and Cycling in Inverleith: an upcoming conference

inverleith neighbourhood partnership

Elaine Lennon, Partnerships Development Officer for the Council, alerts us to this year’s Inverleith Community Conference, taking place on Thursday 30th October from 6-9 pm at Broughton High School, focusing on better health through less driving. 

How can the Neighbourhood Partnership help remove barriers that exist?  Here’s the place to tell them!  What alternatives to driving are there?  Here’s how to learn! 

It’s a chance to interact with a wide range of organisations, talk with a lot of your neighbours and officials, and help plan for a more active Inverleith community. 

Please contact Anne.Brown@ea.edin.sch.uk or phone 332-6316 for information or to book a place.
