Why the community needs usThe ANDF seeks to run an effective community organization to enhance wellbeing and participatory democracy in Aireborough. The aim is to raise the funding, network with specialists and other groups, and bring together local people who want to collaborate on neighbourhood planning and development projects, according to a shared vision. Projects can range from an inspiring Christmas Light display, to those who want to create a network of cycle tracks, or build a community facility.
