Pride in Neath Port Talbot

What is ‘Pride in Neath Port Talbot’?

It is a campaign to help promote a sense of pride within communities in Neath Port Talbot. It aims to encourage everybody to get involved and get active in their communities and to help to make a difference.

In order to make Neath Port Talbot a better place everybody needs to work together like a team. This means everybody working to change the culture of our local communities and the wider Neath Port Talbot community.

Editions of ‘Community Spirit’ promote the theme of ‘Civic Pride’  – ‘Pride in Neath Port Talbot’.

So, what are we doing?

The campaign, called ‘Pride in Neath Port Talbot’, has consistsed of a number of different elements.

It started with a front page article in ‘Community Spirit’.

Adverts have been featured on the sides of buses through Neath Port Talbot as well as on Real Radio encouraging people to get active in their communities.

Car stickers are also available from the civic buildings in Neath and Port Talbot as well as libraries and community centres. If you are having difficulty finding one please call the Communications and Marketing team on 01639 763196.

Make sure you do your bit to make a difference and be proud to be part of the ‘Pride in Neath Port Talbot’ campaign.

What can you do?

You can take part in the campaign and put a sticker in your car window; you could go a step further and actually do something that will make a difference to your local community.

It could be something small like reporting fly tipping that has been thoughtlessly dumped on public land or something bigger like volunteering at a local charity shop.

Let us know what you are doing to make a difference.

There are people who have been making a difference for many years and have dedicated their lives to helping others. There are some people who don’t realise that they are making a difference but are doing small things everyday.

Ideas for how you can make a difference:

  • Keep your street litter free by telling us when there is litter there 
  • Join a neighbourhood watch in your area 
  • Keep your front garden neat by taking part in Borough in Bloom 
  • Look after your neighbours 
  • Reporting vandalism, graffiti and illegal flytipping on public land 
  • Become a volunteer

Tell us what you are doing.
