Community work is all about listening, collaboration and action!
Yesterday was a fantastic reminder of what happens when a neighbourhood comes together with a shared purpose. As part of the Leytonstone Town Team, we hosted local small business owners, residents, and community organizations for a walk-through audit of our High Street and surrounding areas.
We were also joined by councillors Chante Johnson , Charlotte Lafferty, RoseMary Warrington
Seeing business owners and residents side-by-side, pitching ideas to improve our shared spaces, was inspiring.
We’re working hard behind the scenes to make our High Street safer, greener, and more vibrant.
Huge thank you to everyone who showed up and shared their voice. We're just getting started!
