Residents, Chaucer Councillors and Council Officers came together to discuss the process when a developer submits a planning application and what residents can do to ensure their community is protected, invested and supported. 🏢

Your Chaucer Labour councillors were out talking to residents on the Haddonhall Estate last weekend, sharing information on support available to help with the cost of living.

We also took the opportunity to pop into Peveril Gardens, a wonderful public space which we helped to fund alongside the Mayor of London, through our local Cleaner, Greener, Safer grant. Why not pop in and have a look!
