City Centre Neighbourhood Partnership  

City Centre Neighbourhood Partnership

A unique area within the city

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 focus of many hundreds of thousands of visitors every year. It is the public face of the capital. The City Centre Neighbourhood Partnership works to deliver quality of life improvements for all those who live, work, study, or visit the area and, therefore, enhance it's role as an outstanding location for everyone.

The Partnership area is made up of the Local Authority ward of City Centre (Ward 11). It 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 apart from two streets, the area shares the same boundaries as the UNESCO World Heritage site.

Anyone with an interest in the city centre is very welcome to attend meetings of the Partnership. There is always a surgery that takes place from 6.30pm where Police and Council staff are available to answer any questions you may have prior to the start of the main meeting at 7.00pm.

We look forward to seeing you at the meetings 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!

Welcome to your Partnership, it's your city centre and your views
