Leith Neighbourhood Partnership is seeking input from local residents, workers, students and visitors to help establish up to 20 issues for the Council and Police to focus on during the next three-month period. The idea is to identify outcomes which would make you and your community feel safer.
A maximum of six (divided equally between Leith and Leith Walk Wards) will then be chosen by members of the public at the forthcoming Feeling Safe Community Forum meeting.
That event will take place in McDonald Road Library from 11.30am–1.00pm on Saturday 22 June. Police, Environmental Wardens and Community Safety Officers will also be present, so if you plan to attend make sure you find a seat as close as possible to the free refreshments and light lunch.
To add your ideas into the mix, visit www.edinburghnp.org.uk/neighbourhood-partnerships/leith/, Tel. 529 7208 or email: communitysafety.leith@edinburgh.gov.uk
Remember, the Council is using its newish, arbitrary, huge and totally ahistorical definition of Leith for this exercise. It includes large areas of Broughton to the north-east of East London Street, Bellevue, Rodney Street and Canonmills, so even if you know you don't live in the port check this map first to see whether you're included.
