Had an absolutely fantastic day yesterday at our second Opportunity Hounslow conference. Was wonderful to meet and hear from so many people from across the sectors in Hounslow - education, business, development, charity and more. All invested in making Hounslow the best place it can be.

Really looking forward to this! If you have the evening free, why not pop along and ask some questions, or tell us what you like or don’t like about the borough. All in one of my favourite places in the borough. @hounslowcouncil.bsky.social

Donkey Wood, along the River Crane in Feltham. An absolute treat as always for a walk. Lorna calls it “a hidden gem.” Always amazed there aren’t more people - especially on a late summer day like today - I wonder how we could get more people visiting? @hounslowcouncil.bsky.social #RiverCrane

A couple of weeks ago Cllr Sharma and I visited the demolition taking place at Charlton House and Albany Parade. Certainly some feelings of nostalgia but good to see things moving forward. Steve Curran’s old hard hat was please to get an outing too!

Great to take a visit to Lampton Parkside with the leader this week. The site of the former civic centre will ultimately see 950 new homes, right on the edge of Lampton Park. Including amazing views! @hounslowcouncil.bsky.social

Public policy not individual choice is at the heart of healthier, longer lives. It’s why 20mph roads, free school meals and ULEZ, although politically challenging in different ways, are ultimately the right things to do. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I can’t help but be disappointed by this. A very poor recent record in the league but winning a European cup is fantastic. Anyhow, onward, and I do believe the main character in the play “Dear England”‬⁩ is available still. 👀

What good news!! Hopefully we can now begin having some meaningful conversations with the owners on the future of the site. Something that actually meets the needs of the borough’s residents.

Finished! Was aiming for sub 3:30, and did it in 3:28! But more importantly have raised lots of money for a wonderful cause. Thought a lot about Darrell McDonald on the way round 😢 and so most importantly of all, I hope I did Amy, Maya and Theo proud.
