We’ve had a few complaints that the web version of our consultation is not as easy to follow as the exhibition itself. So we re-arranged the pages for you and hopefully, made it easier to follow and to comment. Click here to go to the exhibition pages
We had an amazing response at the exhibition, but we still need your comments if you didn’t have a chance to go. You can download the questionnaire and send it to us, or you can browse through the panels leaving, your thoughts on each page on the website.
Thank you for taking the time to comment. We hope to be able to show you very soon that we have listened and are responding to your ideas.
You can also email us at info@fitzwest.org

Thank you to everyone who came to the exhibition. It was a great success and we were particularly pleased to see so many new faces. Go to the exhibition pages to see the panels and download a questionnaire in order to have your say. The consultation ends 16th February 2016.
We will shortly also publish a copy of the questionnaire about rubbish collection which was also available at the exhibition.

Dear members and Friends of the Neighbourhood Forum,
As a New Year dawns, I thought I’d remind you all of the exhibition that we’ll be holding on 11th January. We are very grateful to the Getty Image Gallery, 46 Eastcastle Street for hosting us.
It will be open between 11.00am and 8.00pm. As well as exhibiting ideas and proposals, we will be unveiling the hand drawn map of the area by artist Lydia Bevan. (Detail above) Everyone who comes along will be able to take away with them a copy of the map, showing many of our houses, offices and landmarks.
Our vision is a vibrant, prosperous, creative and connected neighbourhood; where people from all sectors and communities enjoy wellbeing; where we can work collaboratively to ensure that our living and working needs are met.
If you value Fitzrovia as much as we do and if you live, run a business or work here, we welcome you to come along to the exhibition and help to shape the neighbourhood plan for the future.
As well as inviting Forum members, and anyone in the community, we are hoping to draw those people who might have other types of interests in the area – the press, politicians, developers and landowners. If you know anyone who you think we should add to the invitation list email info@fitzwest.org
Tea,coffee and biscuits served all day.
We look forward to seeing as many people as possible at the exhibition,
Wendy Shillam
Chairman of the Executive

Congratulations to Georgina Davies, aged nine years, from All Souls C of E Primary School in FitzWest for her stunning Christmas card design. And thanks to Councillor Paul Church for sponsoring such an excellent competition and turning the winning design into a stunning greeting card.
I can’t help but observe that here is more proof that Fitzrovia is definitely the most creative part of the West End. Georgina’s work illustrates this perfectly. She has portrayed a London Christmas, as it is; a decorated city with tower blocks, welcoming lit windows and garlanded front doors. What a good idea to put a Father Christmas hat onto top of the Swiss Re tower!

We have received a Christmas Card from Westminster City Council, signed by the leader Councillor Philippa Roe. As we have nowhere to display it, it will have to remain on my mantelpiece, but I thought that it would be worth circulating the very pretty picture of ice skating in Hyde Park.
Complements of the season to all our readers!
