As part of Islington Council’s ‘Fairer Together’ initiative, Voluntary Action Islington and Octopus Community Networks have established Local Wellbeing Networks (LWN) throughout the borough. This is born from the council’s ambition to increase collaboration between services and provide a community voice platform.
The networks consist of statutory service providers, charities, community groups and residents, all of whom have committed to taking a more active role in their local community, sharing best practices and collaborating for positive social change.
This is developed in each locality (North, Central & South) and consists of monthly meetings hosted by a rotating network member. This meeting is open to anyone working or living in the area. It provides a platform to discuss concerns or share ideas on how citizens can work together and achieve positive social change.
