City Centre Neighbourhood Partnership

A unique area within the city

ThePeoplesStory

Edinburgh's city centre faces a unique set of issues and pressures within Scotland's capital city. The city centre is home to the Scottish Parliament as well as numerous festivals, events and celebrations, and is the chosen destination for millions of visitors every year. It is the public face of the capital.

The Partnership area (Ward 11) also has a residential population of around 23,000 people, spreading from Abbeyhill in the east, to the city's West End and Tollcross areas. Importantly, it also covers the city's world famous areas of the Old Town and the New Town and shares almost exactly the same boundaries as the UNESCO World Heritage site.

The City Centre Neighbourhood partnership works to deliver quality of life improvements for all those who live, work, study or visit the area and enhance its role as an outstanding location for everyone.

Anyone with an interest in the city centre is very welcome to attend meetings of the Partnership and hope you take the opportunity to have your say about what's important to you in the city centre. Working together, we can make a difference to what happens. Your City Centre Neighbourhood Partnership needs you!
