 Brantford neighbours helping neighbours campaign

 Together with our community partners, yesterday the City launched the “Brantford neighbours helping neighbours” campaign in an effort to ensure that residents have access to the most updated information on available resources and services during the Covid-19 pandemic, and ways to connect with their neighbours if they require support or want to assist those in need.

 Any organizations who wish to have their information included as part of this resource are encouraged to reach out to organizers at brantford@communications.ca
