Mile Cross Good Neighbour Scheme

Connecting our community

Mile Cross GNS will stand as a Good Neighbour Scheme rooted in Norwich, Norfolk. What began as a small local initiative will grow into a vital lifeline for many across the community.

In the years ahead, the scheme will develop far beyond the traditional expectations of a Good Neighbour Scheme, offering an expanding range of support and activities for people in Mile Cross and the surrounding areas.
