You Spoke, We Listened: The South Kilburn Community Plan is Taking Shape.
The purpose of the project is to gather resident-led insights to ensure that South Kilburn's social infrastructure and community services evolve in line with its physical regeneration.
Over 1,000 residents have shared their voices. Here is what you told us matters most.
The Purpose
By the Numbers
Top Priorities for the Community
Crime & Safety (45%)
Tackling anti-social behaviour and drug use by improving building security, such as fixing broken gates and preventing unauthorised entry.
Housing & Maintenance (41%)
Demanding faster repairs for leaks and mould, better lift reliability, and more effective waste management/bin store upkeep.
Services for Young People
Creating safe, dedicated spaces and youth centers to provide positive activities and steer young people away from local crime.
Outdoor Spaces
Upgrading parks and green areas through better maintenance, new facilities, and ensuring they remain safe for families to use.
