residents association retelling of the parable of the good samaritan

see this post from the walthamstow village residents association for a description of the latest meeting held on monday night. it makes salutory reading.

the police can only do so much in keeping communities safe. what matters more than anything is that the community itself takes responsibility for creating a climate of neighbourliness where people can ask for help and expect to receive it, and where criminals know and feel that the neighbourhood is not a good place for their activities.

our residents association is active in trying to create that kind of feeling. good on 'em!
