2026-0328 - H&F is the leading the way ….

 Dear All

This message from the Hammersmith & Fulham Council can be found NextDoor ….
 

---

"H&F is the leading the way with unique cutting-edge technology to keep residents safe. 

We’re the very first council in the UK to test advanced AI-powered CCTV, that can detect people carrying knives and other weapons. 

This advanced tech will help the Met Police catch criminals faster, and make streets safer for everyone. 

We're investing £3.2m in artificial intelligence and surveillance technology - cementing H&F's position as Britain's leader in crime-fighting innovation.

It builds on our £5.4million CCTV programme that has grown our local network to more than 2,500 cameras over the last four years. It's the most sophisticated surveillance network anywhere in the country.

Every parent deserves to know their children are safe walking our streets. Every woman should feel secure coming home at night. Every resident has the right to live without the fear of being a victim of crime.

This investment is about giving families peace of mind, helping victims see justice done, and ensuring criminals know there's nowhere to hide in H&F. When residents see the results of justice being served is when the investment truly pays off."

 Dear All

The following message has been received from Ellie LYNES at the CROWN & SCEPTRE ...

Hope you are well!

I wanted to reach out ahead of the Spring Term to let you know what we have going on this time of year.

We are midway through the Six Nations tournament, which has been such a great, lively environment here this year. We are still taking bookings for the rest of the games if that is of interest.

We are also hosting our first St. Patrick's Day "Party" this year on Tuesday 17^th March, with premium Guinness and traditional live Irish music from 6:30pm that evening. Should be a fab night and great for families of all ages.

Finally, with Thai New Year fast approaching (13th - 15^th April), we will be running some amazing promotions and specials, such as goody bags available when a Thai Meal and pint of Singha is purchased.

Hopefully this should be paired with good weather, let me know if you'd like any further information.

Thank you for your help!

Best Wishes,

2025-1116 - Community Crime-Fighting: Hammersmith and Fulham

 

 

---

Community Crime-Fighting: Hammersmith and Fulham

By Met Police Events at

238-248 King Street
on Wednesday 10th December 2025
from 6pm to 9pm GMT

Join your local policing team and the Met Police senior leadership to hear about crime-fighting in Hammersmith and Fulham.

Policing is most successful when built on a foundation of working in neighbourhoods – close to and, where possible, with Londoners.

The Met is hosting this event to talk about crime-fighting in your community and to give you the chance to have your say.

Do you have key concerns in your local area which you would like to see addressed? Do you want to know more about how the Met is cracking down on crime? As well as interacting with us digitally through our new Met Engage platform, your local Community Crime-Fighting event is a chance to engage directly with your local policing team and senior Met officers.

On arrival, volunteers will register your attendance and direct you to networking and refreshments. This is your chance to meet local officers and teams working to deliver improvements in your borough.

Following this, the local borough policing team and a member of the Met’s management board will outline our policing strategy, local priorities and upcoming work.

The evening will close after a Q&A session, giving you the opportunity to ask questions or if you prefer, leave written feedback. Further opportunities for discussion will be available throughout the event.

What you’ll hear about

• How we’re working to strengthen trust, cut crime and raise standards
• Progress since A New Met for London (2023) and how we’re building on that in our next phase
• Crime-fighting in your local borough

Who will be there

• Senior officers from the Metropolitan Police.
• Local teams and officers fighting crime in your community – ready to listen to your questions and concerns.

Over the next three years, the Metropolitan Police is determined to make the Met the best possible local police service for London and Londoners.

Tickets are limited to one per person and events are likely to be busy. Please book early to avoid disappointment. If tickets are gone, join the waitlist and we’ll contact you if a place becomes available.

2025-1116 - TfL's proposed changes to Shepherd's Bush roundabout

Dear All

The following has been received from Ruth Saunders ...
 

---

I’m one of the members of the apolitical SOS group that is concerned about the changes TfL are proposing to Shepherd’s Bush roundabout.
 
We are pro-cycling (I personally haven’t had a car since 1996) and want to encourage people to cycle by enabling them to do so safely. But our concerns with TfL’s scheme are

• Encouraging more cyclists into the path of traffic when so many cyclists (c.50%) fail to stop at red lights on this roundabout, which could reduce not increase cycle safety 
• The removal of a traffic lane on Shepherd’s Bush Road, Holland Park Avenue and the roundabout – creating congestion for other traffic including buses and emergency vehicles and pushing traffic into local streets in Brook Green, Addison, Shepherd’s Bush and Hammersmith Grove

 
We believe that a better way forward is to upgrade the two existing well-used and historically safe cycleways around the roundabout, as it will make cycling safer for all and encourage less experienced cyclists to cycle, without requiring the removal of any traffic lanes. 
See attached chart for more detail. 
 
Before any final decision is made, we are urging TfL to

• Undertake local traffic modelling to assess the likely impact on congestion on the roundabout and local residential streets.
• Map out the alternative proposal in practice, including how it can be segregated for pedestrians and cyclists. 

 
Less than 12% of residents and 30% of cyclists support the scheme but TfL want to push ahead. But TfL can only go ahead if Hammersmith & Fulham Council approves it. So we are 

• Encouraging Hammersmith & Fulham Council to reject the scheme and upgrade the existing 2 cycleways first
• Asking local H&F residents to sign a petition to reject TfL’s proposal, which already has over 1,750 signatures  https://www.change.org/p/stop-tfl-s-plan-to-gridlock-shepherd-s-bush-roundabout

 
We believe this could have a negative impact on the residents in your area, and so might be an initiative you want to notify your members about, including the petition. Please do let us know if that would be possible, or if it would be helpful to talk – that’d be our pleasure. 
 
Thank you, 
 
Ruth Saunders
