Local Neighbourhood Partnerships
The City of Edinburgh Council has established Neighbourhood Partnerships to implement community planning. This gives local people the opportunity to influence the delivery of public services at a neighbourhood level.
There are two neighbourhood partnerships that impinge upon the lives of Greater Pilton residents. The Drylaw / Telford neighbourhood is part of the Inverleith Neighbourhood Partnership, while the Forth Neighbourhood Partnership covers Muirhouse / Salvesen, West Pilton / West Granton, Royston Wardieburn and Trinity. For further information, contact the North Edinburgh Local Office or 0131 529 5050
