Community events
Have your say in your local community
Turning your voice into action
Our Community Engagement Team are one of the many ways we connect with our local communities.
The team is here to listen to your feedback, turn your voice into action, and work together with you to get results that matter.
One of the ways we do this is by regularly giving local neighbourhoods the chance to ask questions and tell us what you think.
We invite you to join us at one of our upcoming events. Everyone is welcome, just drop in.
Upcoming community events
Barnes Community Pride Day
We’ll be in the Barnes area on Tuesday 4 June, 10am–3pm, for our Community Pride Day in partnership with our retrofit contractor Mulalleys.
We’ll be:
-
Carrying out minor repairs
-
Litter picking
-
Providing a large skip so you can get rid of any unwanted items from your home or garden
The skip will be on the corner of Stillingfleet and Barnes Avenue.
If you need help carrying anything, just speak to one of our team on the day.
Please note: white goods, mattresses, and sofas can’t go in the skip. These should be disposed of through the usual bulky waste collection service.
