Great to have @GarethBaconMP in #Eltham this afternoon at our end of summer tea and cake. Gareth’s insights into the current political situation and the importance of sticking to our principles were good to hear.
Looking forward to seeing it open, and of course remain committed to continuing our work to get a permanent police presence in Eltham as well as tackling anti-social behaviour on the High Street.
Really pleased to see planning permission given this week for the temporary conversion of the old Eltham Police Station site into Padel courts. We need to give people a reason to come to the High Street if we want to increase footfall and this does exactly that.
😻 Fancy Cat Spec-cat-ular in Eltham😻 This weekend the Avery Hill campus will be hosting the Fancy Cats cat show on Saturday and Sunday. More information and how to get tickets below 👇🏼 greenwichwire.co.uk/2025/08/26/fan…
🚧🚧 ROAD CLOSURE ON HALONS ROAD 🚧🚧 The entrance to Halons Road from Footscray Road is due to be closed for the next three days to allow for Thames Water to install a new water supply into the water network.
Successive Labour administrations have failed to take the reality of Greenwich’s finances seriously and now their chickens are coming home to roost. Greenwich residents deserve better. greenwichwire.co.uk/2025/08/26/gre…
In the first half of 2025, Labour run Greenwich answered just 26% of resident queries within 10 business days. Maybe if Labour spent less time worrying about offending residents and more time answering their questions they wouldn’t be in such a mess. thesun.co.uk/news/36344304/…
Great coverage of the debate at the town hall calling for a banking hub in Eltham in the Greenwich Wire 👇 greenwichwire.co.uk/2025/07/30/elt… And our petition has got almost 500 signatures, but if we still need YOUR support. If you haven’t already sign at Change.org/ElthamBankingH…
🚰 Thames Water leaks on Southend Crescent🚰 We’ve had the below response regarding the frequent issues on Southend Crescent. We’ve asked for the outcome of the risk assessment to be shared with us as well as any potential future corrective work.
Read the Eltham Matters July newsletter for people interested in what #Eltham Conservative Party are doing to stand up for local residents. It has been a busy month - do get in touch if you think there is anything they are missing. mailchi.mp/71b595fe80da/e…
This is much needed. We’ve seen more and more HMO applications coming up in Eltham, and without these measures our area will be irreversibly changed.
This is much needed. We’ve seen more and more HMO applications coming up in Eltham, and without these measures our area will be irreversibly changed.
We’ve spent the last few months questioning the Council on HMOs and the draft Local Plan due later this year. Delighted to see our motion agreed to crackdown on the spread of HMOs in our borough, but we will push the Council to do more in the interim. greenwichwire.co.uk/2025/07/25/gre…
Last night, councillors from all parties backed the call for a banking hub in Eltham. I spoke in the debate — watch the video below. Please help keep up the momentum: 👉 change.org/ElthamBankingH… #Eltham #BankingHub
Footballing royalty at the Artic Stadium 👑 🎙 We were delighted to host legendary commentator Martin Tyler at the Artic Stadium during our pre-season preparations last week 👏 We hope you enjoyed your visit, Martin! 🤝 #COYM 🟢⚫
Great to see Grangehill Road being resurfaced today following campaigning by local Conservatives. We’ve raised with officers about how this impacts residents bin collections on Grangehill and whether green and black bins will be collected later in the week instead.
🎥 Watch this 👇 Too many in Eltham have been left behind by bank closures — it’s time for action. We’re calling for a Banking Hub in Eltham to restore access to vital services. 🖊️ Sign & share the petition: change.org/ElthamBankingH… #Eltham #BankingHub #KeepCashAccess
Bank closures have left too many in Eltham without access to in-person services. A motion on banking will be discussed at the town hall next week — but we need more than words. Sign and share our petition for a banking hub 👇 🖊️ change.org/ElthamBankingH…
I’ve been away recently and came back to a message from a resident about the pedestrian crossing outside McDonalds not working. Raised with TfL over the weekend and chased on Monday, pleased to see the light is back working today!
It was great to attend the grand opening of the new community police hub in Kidbrooke yesterday. We will continue to campaign for a similar facility in Eltham to bring back a permanent police presence to our area.
We’ve really been putting pressure on the Council to do everything it can to increase footfall on the High Street. So it’s great to see the Eltham Carnival being held in Passey Place this weekend. The events are finished for today, but start again tomorrow at 12pm!
