Golborne declared poorest ward in London
Councillors call for all-party plan to tackle the most deprived ward in London in the richest borough in Europe
New GLA figures naming Golborne in North Kensington as the joint poorest ward in London on extent measure has prompted Councillors to propose urgent cross-party action.
Cllr Emma Dent Coad, who brought the report to light at a rowdy Council meeting in March, states: Kensington and Chelsea Tories may be surprised, but for Councillors working in Golborne it is no surprise at all. We are seeing appalling dental health in young children, people of all ages economising on food, threats of eviction, debt, ill health and depression. Cllr Dent Coad is already working with local community groups who are experiencing cuts, to see how best to work together to target the neediest. Read the story on Kensal Gasworks to see what Cllr Mason is proposing.
A first step is to enable the ClementJames Centres hugely successful IntoWork programme, which helps workless people overcome barriers to work and links them with training and jobs, to set up weekly sessions at the Venture Centre in Wornington Road.
