Neighbours connect on special day

IPSWICH neighbours will be boiling the kettle and lighting the barbecue on Sunday, March 27, to celebrate Neighbour Day.

With a diverse range of events planned, it’s easy to celebrate your community, Neighbour Day founder Andrew Heslop said.

“Celebrating with your neighbours can be as easy as a cuppa, a slice of cake or a Tim Tam,” Mr Heslop said.

“But for many communities it is a lot more. There are barbecues and street parties; festivals with jumping castles and face painting; walks around historic suburbs and open days at neighbourhood centres.”
