The Friends and Neighbours campaign (FAN) aims to celebrate and promote what makes good neighbours. Good neighbourhoods are created by good neighbours and are safer, happier and healthier places for everyone.

Shaftesbury Area Community Partnership and The Three Rivers Partnership (Gillingham area) are proud to be involved in FAN. This campaign is a great example of community partnership working – bringing together partners from across diverse sectors with common goals, for the benefit of those that live and work here.

The two Partnerships, along with Dorset Primary Care Trusts Integrated Care Team, are coordinating FAN as they believe that community partnerships exist to improve the quality of life of all people, particularly the vulnerable, both in the towns and villages that make up our community here in the Blackmore Vale
