Three Isleworth councillors

#Isleworth councillors out on the doorstep today, hearing from residents and picking up casework. Grateful for all the support we received from everyone we spoke to today. As ever, it's a privilege to serve Isleworth.

A fire engine with a pink poster in front of it, that says "Clean Air Night. If you can smell wood burning, you're breathing in harmful air pollution".

Thanks to Alex in #Isleworth for putting up our posters in her local GP surgery and community centre, and for chatting to Hounslow Fire Brigade about #WoodBurning. Burning wood and smokeless fuel makes our air dirty and harms #Health. #CleanAirNight @lfb-hounslow.bsky.social

Excited to be bringing 6 new #Padel courts to #Isleworth and #Hanworth leisure centres - the first Padel courts in Hounslow Council's leisure centres. Padel is one of the fastest growing sports in the country, so we're investing nearly £1 million in offering the sport locally.

Well with just 14 days until my first @UltraChallenges #Marathon #Hike it was time to get the last long distance hike in!So a nice 20 miler from #Hampton to #Isleworth on the #ThamesPath was order of the day! A nice pace & banging #Cuppa with a #Bacon & #Egg #Sandwich at 12 miles

Isleworth councillors

Proud to be once again standing to represent #Isleworth alongside my fantastic colleagues Cllr Sue Sampson and Cllr John Stroud-Turp. It has been the privilege of a lifetime to serve Isleworth's residents these last years and we hope to continue working hard for our constituents.

At the end of a narrow darkened pathway, with bare, yellow-brown London brick walls at either side - a brilliantly white-painted building with old, rectangular, many-paned windows, a lemon-yellow painted front door and matching yellow window boxes with a variety of pink flowers in. An old lamp post balances the scene, with chimneys rising above.

A house fire in #Isleworth is believed to have been accidental and caused by a fault with an extension lead www.london-fire.gov.uk/incidents/20...

▶️ Don't overload extension leads
▶️Check you’re using the right fuse for the plug
▶️Fully unwind drum extension leads to prevent overheating

'Words can't describe my happiness' - new accessible homes built in West London The development will now home up to 28 people.

I was delighted to meet Adan last week, and hear about how happy he is in his new, accessible home, right in the heart of #Isleworth. Working in partnership with #Habinteg across 13 small sites, has transformed underused land into valuable housing.

60 years ago today, the London Boroughs, including #Hounslow, were created.

#Middlesex Chronicle said, "At midnight the boroughs of #Heston and #Isleworth, #Brentford and #Chiswick and the urban district of Feltham ceased to exist and the #London Borough of Hounslow took over."

West London homes could be heated by sewage Heat from sewage being processed at the Mogden Sewage Works in Isleworth could heat local buildings, as the local council has applied for funding to build a heat network for the area. Read more ›

West London to get plush new film studios with 3,000 jobs created The old Gillette Factory in West London will be turned into a 'state of the art' production hub for films and TV

My comment to MyLondon on film studios coming to #Isleworth: "The iconic Gillette Building on the Golden Mile is a vital part of Hounslow's history and now, with this decision, the area will play a vital part in Hounslow's future as a burgeoning hub for film production and the creative enterprises."

Thames Water data reveals raw sewage discharges in rivers rose 50% in 2024 Exclusive: Almost 300,000 hours of raw effluent poured into waterways, figures show, up from 196,000 in 2023

#ThamesWater data shows what we've always known in #Isleworth - that the company is routinely polluting our river with its sewage discharges. It needs to invest in improving its infrastructure to prevent spills. If not, we should bring it back into public ownership.

From sewage and scum to swimming in ‘blue gold’: how Switzerland transformed its rivers In the 1960s, the Swiss had some of the dirtiest water in Europe. Now, their cities boast pristine rivers and lakes – and other countries are looking to follow their lead

Kids paddle in the #Thames at low tide in #Isleworth. They really shouldn't with Mogden sewage works regularly dumping sewage into the river there. But maybe the Swiss have some good ideas for cleaning up our polluted rivers.

‘The sewage scandal ends now’: UK water company fines to be used to clean up rivers After fears £11m would be diverted to Treasury, money will be spent on restoring areas where penalties issued

This is welcome news for #Isleworth and all other riverside areas impacted by water companies dumping sewage. Now to force them to clean up their act.

Pale blue evening clouds on a peach coloured sky. Inspired by JMW Turner, whose same sky I look up at. He lived locally, and painted scenes I see most days.
