Excited to open the door to the new BCA book exchange on Barnes Green which was an idea of Alex, a local young activist who wishes to share her passion for books. A new lease of life for an old #HammersmithBridge sentry box which was converted & installed by our Men’s Shed Team.

Out and about with Cllr Tony Paterson and Cllr McNulty-Howard and officer Raphael Younger in The Terrace, Barnes yesterday, sharing our ideas for a 'Pedestrian Improvement Pilot'.
The Terrace is in MBC but on the border with Barnes Ward.
Good inter-Ward collaboration and Hector came too 🐶

I’m so happy we have a new Safe Haven scheme is in Barnes. Eight premises have registered as Safe Havens, providing places of temporary safety and support for anyone in the area feeling harassed, unwell or in need of some help.Learn more about Safe Havens, ⬇️

With the recent upgrade works, Barnes Station has gained new lifts and a footbridge for step-free access. Part of the Orchard on Barnes Common was used as a site camp during the works and will now become a haven again for butterflies as well as reptiles & other inverts buff.ly/Jx2TRUy
