The community you want
starts at your front door.

 

 

 

NEIGHBOUR DAY HAS FIVE PRINCIPAL AIMS

  1. Strengthen communities and build better relationships with the people who live around us.
  2. Create safer, healthier and more vibrant suburbs and towns.
  3. Promote tolerance, respect and understanding.
  4. Break down community barriers.
  5. Protect the elderly, the vulnerable and the disadvantaged.

GETTING INVOLVED

 

Participating in Neighbour Day is easy.

You don’t make a donation, you don’t wear a ribbon and you don’t buy a badge.

You don’t even have to register or volunteer or set up a committee!

 

WHAT TO DO

  1. Say G'day to your neighbours.
  2. Make a special effort to introduce yourself to older residents in your street and anyone who lives alone.
  3. Leave your mobile and home number for their use in an emergency.
  4. Agree to keep in contact.
