Because of the fantastic response to the Shaping Ealing survey, it has now been extended until Friday, 6 May. If you have not already, there is still time to have your say and join more than 9,500 residents and businesses making their voices heard on what matters most to them.

Ealing Council wants as many people as possible to have their voices heard, so it really is crucial that you get involved to help make your vision for the borough a reality.

The survey is part of a series of Shaping Ealing engagement activities taking place over the next few months, and this process will help the council learn more about your priorities for where you live and work. A series of events are also being held across the borough to gather in-person feedback from local residents and business.

This summer and following this boroughwide conversation, the council will be presenting a draft ‘Local Plan’ to residents and businesses that will set out planning policies to guide the future of our borough. This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity that will in time, begin to shape decisions we make about new homes, industrial and employment spaces. Beyond that, it will also be a framework helping the council address issues like climate change, health, and inequality.

The more people getting involved in the conversation, the better, because it will help shape our community for the next 15 years.

Shaping Ealing engagement activities will be publicised online on this website and on the council’s social media accounts. The draft Local Plan will be presented to residents this summer.
