Community engagement and resident activities
The Joyce Avenue and Snell’s Estate regeneration programme is about more than new homes and infrastructure. It is creating opportunities for residents to connect, learn new skills, celebrate local cultures and shape the future of their community.
Through a wide range of activities, events and partnerships, residents have taken part in creative projects, training programmes, community gardening, cultural celebrations and family events that have helped strengthen community spirit and encourage local participation.
These initiatives have played an important role in bringing people together, supporting local talent and ensuring residents remain at the heart of the estate’s ongoing transformation.
