BIG LONDON ENERGY SWITCH

27/10/2013

0 Comments

 
Worried about looming winter fuel bills? Join the Big London Energy Switch!

Registration has opened again for residents to join the Big London Energy Switch.  

Households who sign-up to the collective energy switching scheme by 18 November could dramatically reduce the fuel bills they will be facing again this winter.

The switching scheme brings as many residents together as possible into one ‘auction’ at which energy companies bid for business by offering the best available prices. After the ‘auction' has been held, those who have registered will be offered a new energy tariff.  If you have registered you can then choose whether or not to sign up to a new energy provider. A lower price for all individual households is not guaranteed, but similar schemes by other councils have cut bills by up to £200 a year for some households.

Brent Council Leader, Councillor Muhammed Butt said:

“I know how many of our residents are really struggling with the cost of living at the moment which is why I’m a big supporter of this London energy switching scheme.  It could really help cut your energy bills this winter - putting money back in your pocket.  I urge everyone in Brent to sign up, and see how much you could save. Saving up to £200 a year will make a huge difference to people’s lives, so make sure you tell all your friends, family and everyone in the community to sign up.”

To register, visit www.biglondonenergyswitch.org.uk and put in your details.  Registration is free and there is no obligation to switch from your present provider by registering.

Please contact Helen Sankey, Environmental Projects and Policy Officer on 020 8937 5316 or email helen.sankey@brent.gov.uk if you have further questions.

POLICE MEETING - MONDAY 28 OCTOBER

20/10/2013

0 Comments

 
I recently wrote to all of Kensal Green Safer Neighbourhoods Ward Panel members and community contacts to advertise the upcoming Kensal Green Ward Panel on Monday, October 28, 2013, at 7.30pm, at St Mark's Church, All Souls Avenue, NW10.

Unfortunately I have to say that so far the response has been disappointing with only a handful of a people saying that they will be able to attend. Ward Panel meetings can only be a success if members of the public attend and express what they want from their local police team. It is an opportunity to truly influence local policing.

If you are unable to attend yourself but know someone in the local community - be it a resident, worker, business owner or any other stakeholder - that you think would like to attend please let them know about the meeting, they are more than welcome. I appreciate it has been some time since the last Kensal Green Ward Panel meeting so therefore the more people that are there the better.

I appreciate your help with this and I am more than happy to answer any questions you have via telephone, email or in person prior to the meeting itself.

Kind regards,

RESIDENTS PARKING NEWS - FROM THE KILBURN TIMES

16/10/2013

0 Comments

 
Brent Council’s decision to scrap its £1-a-day scratchcard system for visitor parking from October 31 has been put on hold.

Residents will now be able to use scratchcards until August 31 next year.

However, new scratchcards will not be sold due to the closure of the last ‘parking shop’ in Brent on May 31.

The council’s decision, made earlier this year, to axe the popular scratchcards in favour of an online automated system provoked much anger across the borough.

Residents complained that the council’s website did not work properly while older people said they struggled to access computers.

Cllr Jim Moher, lead member for highways and transportation, said: 'There are some people who need more time to make the transition to the online or phone system we have offered as part of changes to parking services. That’s why we’ve listened and made this significant change to a scheme which is otherwise now working well.'
