Clean for the Queen in Mile End

We have been working with Asda to come up with a Clean for the Queen event in Mile End. March 5th has been suggested as the date we aim to make Mile End even more sparkling!

Currently we are proposing to clean the North Station, Northern Approaches, Bergholt Road area, Turner Rise and Turner Road areas as these are close to the store and are also areas where litter does accumulate. We are happy to go further afield with more volunteers.

We would very much like to involve local residents so if you can spare some time on March 5th, please let us know.

Severalls planning application comments

The Severalls planning application for Phase 2 will be going before the committee in March.

As a team we have submitted extensive comments to the scheme raising many important issues.

We have met with the architects and consortium several times to raise concerns face to face. We are expecting a formal response to all the points raised.

To read the points raised  please look at the PDF document in the link below.
