The Edmonton Neighbourhood Watch Program Society (ENW) invites all residents to take part in Walk Your Block Week 2025, happening August 17 to 23!

This annual city-wide initiative encourages Edmontonians to step outside, connect with neighbours, and help build safer communities just by walking their blocks. Whether it’s a solo stroll, a walk with family, or a group outing, your presence can help deter crime, promote awareness, and strengthen neighbourhood bonds.
