Our Neighbourhood Group works to engage residents, discover and build community relationships and connections – between people, their environment and the local economy.

About Us

The West Willow Village Neighbourhood Group has its beginnings in 1997-1998 as a volunteer group of neighbours who came together to develop some programming for youth. Support and funding was provided by the City of Guelph as the group continued to organize neighbourhood events and family recreation activities.

In 2015 the volunteer leadership team incorporated the Neighbourhood Group as a not for profit Community Development Co-operative.
