The Pulteney Estate Residents Association (PERA) was formed over ten years ago to act as a non-political community group for local residents. Its aim is to preserve and promote the Pulteney Estate as a great place to live.
It does this by bringing people together in a social atmosphere and supporting local groups and events. It also acts as a focal point for representing residents views and concerns about local issues and campaigns to protect the things its members value in the community.
