Have your say and help Lancaster West go carbon-neutral! 

 

We want to hear your views and priorities on a range of things relating to sustainability – from air quality, to your heating and hot water, and recycling and food waste. This survey will help us know what to prioritise over the next year to make Lancaster West a 21st century model estate that meets all of your needs. 

 

To give your views, follow the link to our survey on the app, website or in our Instagram bio. 

 

Everyone who responds to the survey will be entered into a prize draw to have a Google Nest Thermostat supplied and installed (or a £50 shopping voucher if your home has been refurbished and you already have one).

 

If you would like to fill out this survey, you have until the 22nd of January.

“Let’s Talk” is the new professionally facilitated online and telephone peer support group programme for residents of the Lancaster West Estate.

The programme will provide a safe and supportive environment for small groups of residents guided by specially trained facilitators. It is run by Anne Eyre & Jelena Watkins from Disaster Action who specialise in providing support group programmes for people affected by disasters. They have themselves been affected by disaster.

Lancaster West residents are invited to join the first Let's Talk event on 17th November at 6pm to find out more. To join the webinar, please follow https://bit.ly/35YFDva or you can contact Jelena directly jelena@jelenawatkins.com 

The facilitator team are all trained trauma specialists and experienced group facilitators. The value of the group is that they focus very much on mutual support among residents, while being guided and supported by the facilitators.

We are excited to announce we now have 5 electronic noticeboards which have been installed around the estate.

 

This is new pilot scheme will give us another way to communicate with residents, providing real-time updates on the estate works, refurbishment, events and more from your neighbourhood team. They are also interactive, so you give your feedback on what you see on screen. The e-noticeboards are in 5 locations, 2 in Camelford Walk, 1 in Lower Clarendon Walk; 1 in Barandon Walk and 1 in Testerton Walk. 

 

We are one of the first estates in the borough to install the noticeboards and they are part of the overall vision of integrating the social and economic benefits provided by the next generation of digital connectivity and harnessing technology for our residents. 

We would love to hear what residents think about our new e-noticeboards! Please email Sarah on sarah.mortell@rbkc.gov.uk with your thoughts and feedback. 

As we enter the Detailed Design phase of the estate-wide refurbishment, the lead designers for most of the blocks on the Lancaster West Estate have been appointed, as follows:
  

Karakusevic Carson Architects: Barandon Walk, Testerdon Walk , Hurtsway Walk

Penoyre & Prasad: Camelford Walk, Camelford Court, Clarendon Walk , Talbot Walk

ECD Architects: Morland House, Talbot Grove House, Verity Close 

Lead designers still to be appointed for: Treadgold House, Camborne Mews

The lead designers will draw up detailed technical designs and plans for each block ahead of construction, and manage and deliver the refurbishment of homes and communal spaces. They will be guided by the Top Ten Refurbishment Priorities which hundreds of residents contributed to and we revealed in June.  Residents’ priorities for their blocks and their homes can be found by scrolling back through our Instagram feed @lancasterwestneighbourhoodteam or on the WeAreW11 app. We want to reassure residents of our commitment to keeping residents informed and involved at every stage of the refurbishment programme, with major construction due to take place in 2021. 

Lancaster West Estate resident and author Steven Bownds joined this week's LancWestFest in the Tea Garden to talk about his new book, which has just been published. 

 

The Sluggard And The Ants is aimed at children up to 6 years old. You can listen to Steve reading his book on the our IGTV channel.

 

If residents would like a free copy of The Sluggard And The Ants, we still have some copies for collection at Baseline.

 

Well done Steve, congratulations on your new book! What a great achievement, happy reading! 

Notting Dale ward Councillor Judith Blakeman officially opens the Lancaster West Estate Tea Garden. 

She was joined by residents of the Lancaster West Estate and our resident gardener Herb Robert to cut the ribbon on our weekly IGTV live broadcast of the LancWestFest. 

There was music and plants and tea and we managed to miss the worst of the rain. Please come down and enjoy the space. 

Do you have some free time and enjoy gardening? Volunteering is a great way to keep active and help improve the green spaces on the Lancaster West Estate? 

 

Join us in the Tea Garden every Friday at 11am for our weekly 2-hour volunteering session. 

 

Our resident gardener Herb Robert can help you to get more involved.  

 

Tools will be provided and activities will be kept at a safe social distance.

 

If you would like to join the gardening team, please get in touch with Herb Robert.
