Woolwich Healthy Communities is a dynamic community not-for-profit initiative which looks at health from a broad perspective and works to improve the health of our environment, economy and citizens.

This volunteer driven initiative brings together people of all ages and walks of life in the Township of Woolwich in South-Western Ontario, Canada who work at different aspects of enhancing the environmental, economic, and social health of the community, each according to their own passion and talents.

We were formed in 1991 and presently we have three groups to plan and carry out activities in various areas. We have a Clean Waterways group, a Trails group and a Co-ordinating Committee. Other groups such as a Well Water Quality group and a Sustainable Community group have sprung up and dissolved as need and interest dictates. For details on the groups activities click on the left

In 2007 we received recognition of our work in the form of Community Recognition Award from the Ontario Healthy communities Coalition.

In 2008 the Clean Waterways Group was honoured by the Grand River Conservation Authority with its Watershed Award for helping farmers protect and improve the quality of the creeks flowing through their land
