Staying Connected Important Now More Than Ever, Especially for Seniors

Wed, 04 Nov 2020 15:41:33 -0500

As 2020 comes to a close, there are still many questions surrounding COVID-19. Communities have seesawed between loosening and tightening social restrictions as instances of infection have dictated. And while everyone has been on the lookout for some sort of consistency, it’s been difficult to determine what the “new normal” will entail.

However, one of the biggest concerns regarding social distancing has been its effects on metal health. While keeping ourselves isolated from others has helped curb infections, the long-term consequences of limiting human interaction is a problematic one, especially when it comes to the elderly population.

Ward Groups Now Up On Facebook

Tue, 03 Nov 2020 09:49:46 -0500

This past October, Neighbourhood Watch London introduced Facebook Groups for each of the Forest City’s 14 wards. With winter fast approaching and no sign of the pandemic abating any time soon, NWL wants to ensure its members stay connected.

Facebook Groups are great ways to communicate with people who share similar interests. And it’s not uncommon for regular FB users to be associated with multiple groups at a time. With ward groups, NWL is hoping to encourage discussions that directly relate to particular areas or neighbourhoods in the city. Whether it be local events, friendly recognitions or safety concerns, NWL’s new ward groups will help keep you up to speed in your community.

2020: Starting a Year of Clarity

We hope that you all had an enjoyable holiday, and that this year is treating you well. As we continue a period of change for our organization, we wanted to provide a brief update, along with some resources.

NWL Holiday Campaign

Tue, 10 Dec 2019 15:36:09 -0500

In this season of giving, we ask that you consider a tax-deductible donation to Neighbourhood Watch London (NWL).

As you are no doubt aware, our financial future is in jeopardy. The City of London no longer provides grant money to NWL, and we must now rely on options such as fundraising to help sustain the organization.
