Neighbourhood Network is a young organisation that is building from the work of early social entrepreneurial pioneers. We are committed to achieving a high standard of organisational governance.
The organisation is now focusing on building strong foundations towards adopting the Charities Governance Code and we expect that 2021 will see significant progress in this area. We are building a values-based board and creating the systems, policies and structures essential for a vibrant organisation with high safety and compliance standards. Neighbourhood Network operates under the legal entity of Street Feast CLG.
