The council is sending a top team from its leadership team, high ranking officers and councillors to Courtfield and Redcliffe wards next week to hear feedback from residents and local groups.
As part of its useful and community-spirited campaign ‘Your Council Comes to You’, RBKC representatives will be at Old Brompton Library, 210 Old Brompton Road, SW5 0BS from 6.30-8pm on Tuesday, 3rd February.
The previous meeting in this series was held at Chelsea Theatre at World’s End on 15th January and generated a forthright and interesting exchange between residents and the council.
That said, only around 40-50 residents could be bothered to turn from Riverside Ward, which contains many thousands of residents. It is also worth noting that only one of the three ward councillors attended – and she was 51 minutes late (TCC clocked the arrival time at 7.21pm!) and, subsequently, did not contribute to the meeting. Nevertheless, Two House Points for showing up.
Does what it says in the blurb
Maybe the turn out can be somewhat better from C&R residents. As the council’s website blurb says: “This is your forum to have your voice heard and help shape the future of our borough”.
If you care, be there.
