Residents' survey results
The results are back for the recent residents' survey, which was carried out by the independent organisation Electoral Reform Services (ERS). Residents from nearly half of the 538 households on Wornington Green took part in the survey, and the results gave KHT a clear idea of local priorities and views on the regeneration. Please see some key results below.
- 69% of residents' surveyed agreed with the statement: I have concerns about redevelopment but on the whole I think it's for the best.
- 74% said that they didn't mind what parts are developed first, as long as the regeneration was finished as soon as possible.
- 75% agree that as many people should be able to move into their new homes in one go.
KHT will use this information to produce regeneration proposals which are wanted by the majority of Wornington Green residents.
Please see page three of December's Wornington Green News for more details of the survey results and KHT's responses, which were presented at the results open day held on Saturday 6th December.
Independent Tenant Advisor
Following extensive consideration, residents have interviewed and chosen a new Independent Tenant Advisor (ITA) for Wornington Green. The ITA will offer residents independent advice throughout the regeneration process.
The new ITA will be formally announced in January once the paperwork has been finalised, and more details will follow on this website and in January's Wornington Green News.
Open days
As part of its ongoing consultation with residents and the local community, KHT is planning a number of open days and focus group events in 2009.
Look out for more details on this website and in January's Wornington Green News.
Preparing for your move - new publication
KHT is sending all residents a new booklet called 'Preparing for your move'. The booklet provides useful information on the process of moving into your new home and details of what happens if you have to move temporarily until your new home is ready. If you have not received a copy yet you can download one on our publications page.
Athlone Gardens update
KHT believes that Athlone Gardens is a vital community facility and we will be seeking to improve it as part of the regeneration of Wornington Green. Throughout our consultation events, you have told us the park is important but there are some aspects you believe could be improved to make it a better facility for the whole community. We have listened to your views and will be including them in the emerging plans for Wornington Green. Visit our Athlone Gardens page for the latest news about this important facility.
A planning brief for Wornington Green
The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea (RBKC) is consultating on a new draft planning document for Wornington Green. Known as a Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) it sets out the issues that are raised by redevelopment on Wornington Green. The Council is consulting on your views on these issues and will then write a planning brief for Wornington Green. The finished brief will set out the criteria against which the Council will judge any planning application for redevelopment, and what the Council would expect from the redevelopment of Wornington Green.
