How Community Mobilisers help create communities

Preim’s Community Mobilisers are an integral part of any fledgling community. They help newcomers meet and get to know their neighbours and help set up the community website, newsletters, social networking channels and forum groups. They are also instrumental in starting up social events such as country walks, summer picnics and other gatherings.

The aim is to encourage neighbourliness and build more socially aware and inclusive developments. Preim’s Community Mobilisers are very much part of the place making team, creating communities where people live, work and play.

Whilst Kilnwood Vale is a little more established, with over 400 occupations our ‘resident’ community mobiliser will be Anna Grimshaw. Anna’s role will initially be to pull together a calendar of events – we want to get lots in place over the next few months and in the run up to Christmas. We also want people to feed in their ideas to that events calendar too.

How can Kilnwood Vale residents get in touch with Anna?

The first port of call for getting in touch is the residents’ forum. Visit www.kilnwoodvale.co.uk and click on the forum tab. This is a private forum, for members at Kilnwood Vale, so you will need your Preim resident login and password to access the forum. This was provided with your welcome pack or latest service charge letter.

Ask us any questions you may have about the community here, post your ideas for groups or get-togethers, or simply introduce yourself to your neighbours!

It is intended that the website becomes the hub for resident information, whether it’s about local wildlife or to learn about upcoming events.

Alternatively, Anna’s email is anna.grimshaw@preim.co.uk please do say ‘hello’ if you see me around.
