Place-based Networks

Place-based Networks across Edinburgh have filled a need for third sector organisations to come together, share best practices, discuss the issues they are seeing in their local communities and develop collaborative solutions. They are also an excellent way to communicate, support and collaborate with other organisations working within each geographical community of interest.

You can find a list of current networks and contact details below. Get in touch with Valerie McIntosh with any changes or updates: [email protected]
