Twaddell and Woodvale Residents’ Association was started over twenty years ago to advocate on behalf of residents and to help address the range of issues that affect people who live in the area. Engaging with people of all ages and backgrounds, and working in partnership with other organisations and agencies, the association delivers a range of projects and activities that improve quality of life for people who live in the area. This work includes: education and training, arts and culture, community development and peace building programmes. The association also organises the annual Woodvale Festival, the largest culture and arts festival in the Greater Shankill area of Belfast.
