Diwali Celebration – Nov 2023

For those of you that missed the Pinner Association Diwali celebrations, I had a few issues loading the video up on to our website.

Thanks must go to Anup Parmar of The Filming Unit for producing the video for us.

 

 

Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) Christmas Tree Appeal 2023

Dear Resident,

The Metropolitan Police Service has again partnered with the Childhood Trust to raise money to provide toys and gifts for children living in poverty in London. Last year we were able to raise over £87,000 through small and large contributions from the public, and are looking to match that this year, with your help!

Many thanks to those who have already supported this Met Christmas tree appeal already, and for those who would like to get involved please find attached a note that goes to highlight how contributions can be made.

The document also explains about the charity we are working with.

This year the MPS has struggled to gain significant corporate sponsorship and we are getting close to the point where some difficult decisions may have to be made, if we don’t raise enough in donations. we really want every child to wake up on Christmas morning in London with a present, as no child should have to wake up feeling uncared for due to poverty or vulnerability on this day.

Any donations given are very much appreciated. Merry Christmas, and happy holidays!

Harrow to Pinner Cycleway Improvement Scheme Consultation

Harrow Council and TfL are consulting on proposals for changes to the cycling route between Harrow-on-the-Hill Station and Pinner Station which would involve alterations to the carriageway and parking in Marsh Road.

The section in central Pinner would seek to create “clear continuous cycle tracks from the proposed 20mph zone in Cecil Park to Station Approach, new public realm scheme outside Jubilee Parade, new or revised parallel zebra crossing across Marsh Road and Station Approach, and renewed and improved pavements, rain garden and other greening“.

Further information and the link to the consultation survey may be found here:  https://talk.harrow.gov.uk/harrow-to-pinner-cycleway

The consultation deadline is 23:59 on 11th December 2023.   Everyone with a view on these proposals is encouraged to participate in the consultation so as the opinions of as many Pinner residents as possible are heard.

The cost of this project if enacted would be provided by ringfenced funding from TfL.

Try out the Pinner – Harrow Cycleway.

Pinner, An Act of Remembrance

Today Pinnerites came together to remember the fallen in all conflicts.

Even though the weather wasn’t that great and rained as we set up, it was wonderful to see so many people of our community brave the weather and turn up to pay their respects.

This year planning was a little bit different due to the conflict in the Middle East and additional police from Hatch End Safer Neighbourhood Team joined us.

Thank you to all the volunteers and our sponsors that make this happen.
