Southwark Council commissioned rehabdesign to produce a brochure to be used by council representatives when they attend conferences across the country. The document will be used to share best practice on community cohesion. Over the years Southwark has achieved much in making our communities stronger and more resilient. They are especially proud of their partnership work with their residents, the voluntary, community sector, the police, the PCT and local agencies.
Community cohesion means working towards a society in which there is a common vision and sense of belonging by all communities, a society in which the diversity of people’s backgrounds and circumstances is appreciated and valued, a society in which similar life opportunities are available to all and a society in which strong and positive relationships exist and continue to be developed in the workplace, in schools and in the wider community.
