The story of Perry Common starts with a farm and open fields in the early 1900’s. The need for housing has driven the development of the area. But streets and houses do not make a community...

What does make a community?

Working together

Talking together

Overcoming Challenges

Serving for the greater good

These are the values that empowered a community to overcome tremendous challenges from the first housing estate in the 1920’s to the present day. This is the story of ordinary people doing extraordinary things.
