About Destination Ball Hill

Our community group for everyone who works, lives or plays in Ball Hill and wants to make our area a better, cleaner and more social place.


We started in 2022, aiming to regenerate Ball Hill and build a sense of pride and community through collaboration, sharing, listening.

At our beginning we set some goals and interests that began shaping our purpose:

making our area a cleaner, easier space to use, including a monthly litter pick

engaging with business leaders and landlords to link in the business community

representing issues from the community to local officials

agreeing good projects to improve the area, such as green spaces, transport plans, and pollution monitoring

building a creative group to add a visible energy and output to our efforts, and give the area a creative identity
