Central Ealing Neighbourhood Forum

Virus slows but doesn't stop central Ealing

30/3/2020

Coronavirus has brought most public activity in central Ealing to a standstill – but not quite all.
As well as non-essential shops, development sites have been closed. TfL and Crossrail have “temporarily suspended” work at all projects, unless they need to continue for safety reasons. Berkeley Group, owners of St George who are developing the Filmworks site, said it was “progressively managing the safe, temporary suspension of work" where they have been hit by supply issues. 

No-one yet knows what this will mean for completion of these key developments, which have already been long delayed. However some work continues behind closed doors.

Ealing Council says it will continue to process planning applications, with officers working from home.  A meeting of the Planning Committee has been cancelled, but it may be able to consider some proposals by internet contact. We expect that this means details of the Perceval House redevelopment will soon be lodged, as well as other changes which may prove significant, with potentially more being settled with little or no public scrutiny.

The Forum will continue to check all new information. Though we have stopped all face-to-face activities, we have been able to keep in touch through video conferencing. While it is unlikely that our June AGM can take place as scheduled, we will continue to keep people informed through our e-newsletter, Facebook and website.

Information and help
Ealing Council has joined forces with charities, local groups, businesses and concerned residents to respond to the COVID-19 crisis and has launched a new coalition called Ealing Together. Go to http://ealingtogether.org/ to offer to volunteer, give cash donations to local charities or support in other ways.

Residents can ask for help through a structured and trusted referral system for themselves, a vulnerable family or someone else they know who is isolated and struggling.
​

If you are in need of support and don’t have anyone close to you to help, call the advice line on 020 8825 7170.
