Views sought from Leaseholders

Message from Councillor James Slater:

I would like to invite you to attend one of the “Listening to Leaseholders” sessions which I will be running throughout Camden this December.

I have been appointed as Cabinet Advisor for Improving Services to Camden Leaseholders this year and, as part of my report, I want to hear from leaseholders across the borough on what is going well, what could change and what needs to improve. These will guide the recommendations I make in my report to Camden Council in the spring.

I will be in attendance as well as members of Camden’s Leaseholder Services team to answer questions and hear feedback.

The sessions will be held on:

  • Thursday 7 December 2023 – 6:30pm-8pm – Swiss Cottage Library
  • Tuesday 12 December 2023 – 6:30pm-8pm – Camden Town Hall
  • Thursday 14 December 2023 – 6:30pm-8pm – The Greenwood Centre

You must RSVP to the sessions in advance by emailing me at james.slater@camden.gov.uk – please include both your home address and which session you wish to attend. Places will be issued on a first-come, first-served basis.

I really look forward to hearing from you at one of these sessions. Thank you very much for your support and please let me know if you have any questions.

Help Camden’s Housing & Repairs services improve how we respond to complaints and learn from them

Are you passionate about creating positive change in social housing? Do you want to make a difference to what happens with Camden Council Housing & Repairs complaints? If so, then we want your help!

Our Housing & Repairs services receive and investigate complaints from residents who are unhappy with the service we’ve provided them. Every single one of those cases is an opportunity for us to understand and learn from what went wrong, so we don’t make the same mistakes again.

We don’t always make the most of these opportunities, but with your help we want to get better at learning from complaints, and improving the problems they highlight.

Transport for London consultation on bus changes

Transport for London is proposing significant changes to bus routes around London.

https://haveyoursay.tfl.gov.uk/busreview/widgets/44397/documents

Some of those bus routes affect Camden. These include:

  • 16, 24 and 31 routes to be scrapped completely
  • 88, 205 and 214 to have major changes to replace the 24
  • 98 to be changed so it finishes at Victoria instead of the British Museum
  • 113 and 189 to be changed to replace the 31
  • Night buses will also be affected

If you are affected by these changes, please click on the link and have your say.

Health & Wellbeing in Camden — Consultation

A message from Camden Council:

In Camden it remains an unacceptable truth that men and women born in the most affluent areas live 18 and 19 longer years longer in a healthy state than their counterparts in the most deprived areas. Together, we seek to reverse these inequalities and make Camden the very best place to start well, live well and age well.

Camden’s draft Health and Wellbeing Strategy 2021-30 six-week consultation opens on 1st November and will close on 13th December. We want to hear your views on our proposed approach to improve health and wellbeing. Whether you live, work or receive care in the borough, we want your voice to be at the heart of the new strategy.

To find out more and to share your views, please visit the consultation website:
Share Your Views On Joint Health And Wellbeing Strategy 2021-2030 – Commonplace

Please also promote the consultation with your communities and networks by sharing the website and this consultation leaflet.

If you have any questions or would like accessible versions of the strategy, please contact healthandwellbeingboard@camden.gov.uk or call 0207 974 5827.

Houses in Multiple Occupation Consultation

Camden Council has a consultation open at the moment regarding the future direction of licensing for Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMO). An HMO is a shared home, including house & flat shares, student homes, bedsits and some buildings converted into flats.

The Council has an existing licensing scheme for private landlords, and the aim is to improve the quality of homes in private rental. The existing scheme finishes in December 2020, and the Council wants feedback before starting a new system (or extending the existing system).
