Harlesden Neighbourhood Forum is a neighbourhood planning forum with a designated area within the Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation (OPDC) and London Borough of Brent (LBB). The Forum was the first neighbourhood forum to be designated by OPDC on 26 November 2015. The Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as amended) requires neighbourhood forums to apply to their respective Local Planning Authority (LPA) for re-designation every five years. Harlesden

TAR

Neighbourhood Forum has successfully applied to OPDC and LBB to be re-designated. The Forum currently has 90 member organisations and 496 individual members. Its work is of benefit to the overall Harlesden population (~19,000 inhabitants)

Section C Objectives and activities

The objectives of the Forum are:

Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document

• The prevention or relief of poverty in Harlesden; • To develop the capacity and skills of the members of the socially and economically disadvantaged community of Harlesden in such a way that they are better able to identify, and help meet, their needs and to participate more fully in society; • To promote for the benefit of the inhabitants of the area of benefit the provision of facilities and activities in the interest of social welfare for recreation and leisure time occupation with the object of improving their conditions of life. • To promote high standards of planning or architecture in or affecting the area of benefit. • To secure the preservation, protection, development and improvement of features of historic or public interest and public amenities in the area of benefit. • In furtherance of the above objects but not otherwise the trustees shall have the power to establish and/or maintain a neighbourhood forum for the area of benefit to promote and or improve the social, economic and environmental well-being of the area.

We can confirm that all trustees have read the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit and have agreed to the terms stated within.

Since April 2022, when we were able to renew the Coordinator contract with the funding received from Trust for London, Young Brent Foundation we have delivered a surprising amount of activities.

Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)

Conduct the recruitment and induction of 1 Forum volunteer supporting the Planning team. Training has also been delivered to two new trustees. 2. Implement trustee portfolio development, creating work plans for key workstreams: funding, community, environment and planning. 2.1 The Forum applied for additional core funding through the City Bridge Trust and is working on an application for the National Lottery to attract core funding to run and grow as an organisation. 2.2 Extension of boundaries towards Church End and Roundwood wards. The Forum delivered face-to-face and online consultations during the year to understand to what extent residents in the Church End area want to be part of the Harlesden Neighbourhood Forum. Maps and the final report will be presented to Brent Council, and the OPDC will be ready for the AGM 2024. 2.3 Planning team and strong relationship with the Planning department at Brent Council. We now have an established planning team that screened and commented on over 120 planning applications and recalled Brent Council on important planning policies to implement enforcement where developers or owners did not respect them.

TAR

March 2012

2.4 Working hand in hand with local councillors. The Forum had several meetings with local councillors from Harlesden and Kensal Green and with the leader of the Council to make sure stakeholders would work together for Harlesden's better outcome. As local councillors are by law members of the Planning Forum we are working closely with them to look at issues on which we can collaborate. 3. 16 newsletters have been shared with 496 members and 90 member organisations/businesses involved directly with our work, plus 85 people/organisations who are not members but who subscribe to our newsletter. 4. Quarterly public/members’ meetings have occurred, and attendance is growing steadily. We held the last meeting of the financial year in March 2023 at the Trinity Centre 5. Social media and online presence continue regularly with the following website reports: at the end of March 2023, Google reported a +200% increase in traffic from organic search. Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn have increased the number of shares and posts, reposts, and retweets. Social media followers have increased by 15% in 2022 - 2023. Several activities and workshops have been delivered to the membership: • Harlesden Heritage Action Zone programme, including an art design competition. One thousand years of Harlesden • Harlesden Neighbourhood Forum has supported implementing the Council's strategic plan through the Heritage Action Zone (HAZ) initiative by coordinating six local groups to create a consortium that eventually attracted £100k of funding to the high street. The programme is funded by Historic England and managed by the Young Brent Foundation (leading the consortium) and Brent council. • Five projects have been approved by the council to be delivered in the town centre from September 2022 to March 2023, focusing on Harlesden's past, present and future. Due to limited funding for the HAZ project, the Forum has presented a proposal to access different funding apart from the HHAZ and got additional funding (5K) from the Elevate grant (John Lyon Charity) to deliver in quantity and quality. b) Activity Date October 2022 - March 2023 c) Activity Type (i.e., capacity building) Art and design competition and workshops to celebrate and brand Harlesden's cultural heritage. d) Output Type (how many planned) - 4 art workshops, - 105 people attended (a mix of children and adults), - 72 artwork submitted,

Highlights

1000 years of Harlesden was an innovative way to engage the Harlesden community in and around the HAZ celebrations.
A structured engagement program for different generational groups looking at their heritage and newly developed culture.
Workshops included a walk-through of Harlesden, history and talks from an artist or designer to inspire people to be designers and produce entries for the Colourful Design competition.
Participants were fascinated to hear about the changes in Harlesden throughout the centuries and asked questions when designing pieces of artwork reflecting Harlesden’s culture, people and longstanding heritage.
In designing, we have done the first step in rebranding Harlesden positively, creating a sense of ownership for our area.
Can create a better Harlesden now and in the future;
The physical outcome is printed on natural cotton tote bags, stainless steel water bottles, canvas and posters in exhibitions in cafes, public buildings and notice boards, and building hoardings are distributed in the town centre during events to residents.
The Judging panel included Harlesden and Kensal Green ward councillors, local artists, and the cultural coordinator of HHAZ, the Harlesden High Street Gallery.
The project had additional partners in addition to the HAZ consortium partners: SAAFI (Somali Advice and Forum for Information), Brent Green Neighbourhoods, Youth with a MissionUrban Keys, local schools, the Beat London, Forest and Family, The Lodge Cafe in Roundwood Park, the Royal Oak pub, Curzon Crescent Family wellbeing centre.

Clean air and the environment are growing as a priority in Brent, and the Forum has implemented the following actions and activities since the last report:

a) The Forum has been monitoring air quality on the high street since March 2022, thanks to a Breathe London node. The Forum has access to

TAR

March 2012

live data online and uses this in its work, mainly to hold Brent Council accountable for action to reduce traffic in Harlesden. At the end of last year, the Forum asked Brent Council to apply to the Mayor's AQ fund on our behalf to cover the costs of keeping the Breathe London node alive for an extra 2 years. The node is essential in order to monitor pollution levels on Harlesden high street where nitrogen dioxide (NO2) levels are the highest in the whole of the UK based on a study led by Imperial College London, one of the Breathe London programme partners. The Brent Air Quality Action Plan (AQAP) for 2023-2027 - published on December 22nd 2023 - also reports that: ' Harlesden High Street (location BRT55), where a slight decrease was observed in 2019, but an increase in 2021 was reported, which exceeds 2016 levels for annual mean NO2 concentrations.' Considering the detrimental impact of nitrogen dioxide on people’s health, HNF is keen to keep monitoring air pollution levels and share the data with its members. b) Following our lobbying for properly enforced School streets , Brent Council has made permanent some of the local emergency School streets created in 2020 (St. Joseph RC Primary School and Crownhill Road, where three schools are located) by installing Automatic Number Registration Plate (ANPR) cameras at the end of 2022. At the end of 2023, the council consulted residents on expanding the Crownhill Road School Street to discourage even more parents from driving their children to school, as requested by some residents and the Forum itself. As part of Clean Air Day last June, we held one coffee morning in St Joseph’s RC Primary School (NW10 9LS) parents to raise awareness of the impact of air pollution on children’s health and encourage families to use alternative ways of travelling to and back from school. We also delivered a presentation to John Keble Primary School during an assembly. On September 22nd, we participated in a Car-free day event organised by Brent Council on Crownhill Road. It was the first time that the commission organised such an event. We think that we played a decisive role in Brent council organising such an event as we had enquired in June about the possibility of organising a similar event on another school street in the area. c)The Forum is a Green Neighbourhood Ambassador for Brent. Last summer, we attended and promoted the consultation process to implement Green corridors between Church Road and Roundwood Park. d) We also promoted sustainability in the 1000 years of the Harlesden project through the following guiding questions: What does the future hold? What traditions did your culture have to preserve the planet, and how can we use those in Harlesden today and in the future? e) The Forum has supported several businesses and organisations this year to become members and support clean air and clean environment policies in the Neighbourhood Plan: Harlesden Mums Who Cycle, Leap, Sally’s Scooter, Kaleo Cafe, and Nilly Flowers.

f) The Forum has worked closely with Brent Council officers to highlight the need for protected cycle lanes in the borough and more specifically the implementation of the Wembley to Harlesden TFL project - formerly Wembley to Willesden project.

g) We have also established a connection with waste management firm Powerday, whose leading site is near Willesden Junction, to look into actions that will reduce HGVs coming into Harlesden alongside using new technology.

Green spaces:

a)The Forum created a consortium of organisations interested in improving services for the community in Roundwood Park. The Roundwood Lodge Edible Community Garden project, funded by the Our Space Award from Groundwork London and the Together Towards Zero grant from Brent Council, is a partnership between Harlesden Neighbourhood Forum, Roundwood Park Lodge Café, and the specialist organisation Forest & Family.

It has cleaned up and enhanced formerly unused space surrounding the cafe, transforming it into a welcoming community space, a Nature Connection Centre (NCC) and an edible garden with a new water harvesting and composting system. By co-designing with residents, more than 500 people have been engaged to date. We created a wildlife-friendly environment and multipurpose facilities where residents can engage in conservation activities. The partnership was renewed last year as the NCC has piloted and delivered an ambitious programme of outdoor community events, talks, workshops, holiday camps and meetings over this time, benefiting and impacting many residents, children, families, schools and community groups. On 7[th] October 2023, local Councillors unveiled the Our Space Award plaque provided by Groundwork London and the 2[nd] Church End & Roundwood Environmental Network took place there, enhancing the vision and sustainability of the space. b) We have conducted a significant consultation, including face-to-face fieldwork and an online/paper survey for Tubbs Road Pocket Park redevelopment near Willesden junction. We have worked with the park department at Brent Council to finalise the design and agree on a budget. We have applied for Brent community funding (formerly called NCIL) for the park refurbishment and expect to find out whether we’ve been successful in March of this year. c) Both Roundwood Park playground and Bramshill open space playground have been refurbished thanks to the joint work of the local community and collaboration with the Council. Work to create an orchard in Bramshill will start when funding is available. The consultation about the orchard has been delivered to residents. d) We have strengthened the relationship with Harlesden Town Garden and worked with HTG to improve the surrounding area by ensuring that the planning rules are enforced adequately by Brent council.

March 2012

Town centre:

a) The Forum, in partnership with Harlesden residents and partner organisations, gathered data and organised responses to object to a planning application to open an adult gaming centre in Park Parade as the Applicant objected to the decision in 2022. The concentration of anti-social behaviour in this area is already high, and the premises would be close to a school. There was a close collaboration with residents of Park Parade, Councillors and the Forum to look at the situation from the planning perspective and planning rules and from the public health point of view. This experience made the Forum consider reviewing planning policy at the council level or in the Neighbourhood Plan.

b) Harlesden Neighbourhood Forum updates the community thanks to the meeting with CVS Brent about the Picture Palace community provision. The refurbishment of the building is now scheduled to be completed by the end of 2024 as the Council needed to invest additional money for the work to be completed.

c) As many as 18 councillors and Council officers have attended trustee and public online meetings over the last 12 months. d) As part of the Inclusive Growth project, Harlesden Neighbourhood Forum continues to have a close working relationship with the Harlesden Town Centre Manager through monthly meetings and with the Metropolitan Police with the Safer Neighbourhood Team in Harlesden and Roundwood formed by a dedicated team of police officers that are countering ASB in Harlesden with the support of the community. Local economy and regeneration are big topics as many shops are vacant, and Harlesden is having problems attracting big brands to the area. We recently lost our unique charity shop and are trying to attract a new one to the area with the support of the town centre manager.

Various activities have provided opportunities for members to support local community space development and increase their contributions to meetings, groups and panels, including the review of local plan examples, including:

OPDC consultation and meetings, business development showcase, and especially the ongoing HS2 and North Kensington Gate.
Regular meetings with the Old Oak Neighbourhood Forum (OONF) and support their advocacy about OPDC developments and programme of consultations.
Brent Environmental Network
Borough plan consultations
● Fly tipping and waste management

Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

We set ourselves expected outcomes and the following explains our achievement.

Outcome 1: Community members have greater involvement in local development and planning matters and other decisions affecting the local area.

Members have become more active in challenging the Council's
decisions. Examples are surveys and petitions concerning improving Tubbs Road pocket park, Bramshill open space and the opening of Nature Connect Us Centre and Edible Community Garden in Roundwood Park, Bridge Park leisure centre, and Extension of boundaries review (Emails and letters available on request) .
We have created a consortium with local organisations, Young
Brent Foundations and the Council to build more MUGAs (Multi Use Games Area). We applied to the Football Foundation and succeeded in the bid's first part. We will now start consultation with the community to understand where they want the areas to be located.
Monitor planning applications: created an official address to
respond to planning application planning@harlesdenneighbourhoodforum.com, calling planning enforcement at Brent Council to implement their policies on planning applications and the licensing committee regarding licences for bars and adult gaming premises.

· We have monitored and responded to 110 planning applications and matters since September 2022.

Outcome 2: The town centre is improved according to a vision established by the community as identified by the Harlesden Heritage Action Zone and the Harlesden Neighbourhood Plan.

(i). As part of the Brent Local Plan and in line with the Harlesden Neighbourhood Plan, Brent Council won funds to improve the High Street through Historic England. HNF pulled together a consortium of local groups who could bid and work in partnership with the Council, and £100k is now available for the consortium to improve the High Street alongside the Council's work with specific heritage shop fronts. More than 13 local organisations engaged.

Outcome 3: Increased championing of good planning and economic development, i.e. via

Neighbourhood Planning.

Committee members who had no organising or planning experience
had galvanised residents and challenged local authority planning decisions as stated in Outcome 1 when they successfully objected to the appeal relating to an adult gaming centre. · We have a temporary office at YWAM Urban Key, based in Station
road. Our coordinator works from there Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
HNF coordinator has recruited 4 volunteers to engage residents in
planning matters in Bramshill Road and Station Road. The other four volunteers deliver sustainability projects in Roundwood Park with the local café involving the local community in different green space planning activities. See designs here
Members of the Trustee board attended the Festive Lights
programme in 2022 and our Chair had a walk with our town manager to connect with the business association and other businesses.
The trustees have decided to feature a local business every month
in our newsletter and interview them. · Involved in London Collaborative engagement established by the
Mayor of London to find innovative ways of engagement. · The Planning and Regeneration Committee examines the Mayor's
blueprint called the London Plan, which is designed to answer these questions and also scrutinises the London Legacy Development Corporation (LLDC) and the Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation (OPDC).

· The GLA contacted the Forum to discuss the following Recommendation 7: The Committee welcomes the ambition of Neighbourhood Priority Statements to simplify and widen access to neighbourhood planning, including the protection of small businesses and localities to aid resilience and recovery. More details are needed from the Government on how it will address the most significant challenges facing neighbourhood planning. Therefore, the Government should set out how it will improve accessibility of funding and contribute to capacity building and technical support for neighbourhood planning groups. You can read the full set of recommendations in the report here

Involvement in OPDC consultations and the regeneration of the
Harlesden canal side. · Signposted members and volunteers to engage in employment
opportunities provided by other member organisations.

Roundwood Lodge Edible Community Garden project funded by Our Space Award from Groundwork London.

Project funding ended. However Forest and Family are looking at the sustainability and maintenance of the place with the new gardening club. Please read the report sent to Groundwork London here

The Harlesden Neighbourhood Forum / Roundwood Park Lodge Café, and Forest & Family have cleaned up and enhanced the unused space surrounding the park cafe transforming it into a welcoming community space and edible garden with a new water harvesting and composting system. By co-designing with residents (more than 200 engaged), we created a wildlife-friendly environment and multipurpose facilities where residents can engage in conservation activities:

Pollinator programme, which ran from May to September 2021 - see pics here
Refurbishment of a multi-purpose, eco-friendly education and community edible garden space:
Light exterior works to the old garden centre area (painting/seating)
Removal of mixed waste sitting in the main garden
Building edible garden (including soft fruit bushes, blueberry, and raspberry)
Planting five fruit trees
Adding a rainwater harvesting system used to water plants in the springtime and summer
Building compost area for the cafe to compost vegetable and fruit peelings and to.
Educate children on the natural process of food waste to nourish and regenerate the soil. (Blueberries need a special kind of compost called ericaceous compost).

Section D Achievements and erformance p

10.Community education workshops include gardening, building, upcycling, permanent gardening for pollinator clubs, eco-therapy, climate awareness and resilience, urban greening, community growing, horticulture, and green architecture. See pics here
11.Providing the existing Community Engagement Ambassadors training and support on gardening, building and upcycling to refurbish the site.

We are proud to share one unexpected outcome: we have galvanised residents to tackle local anti-social behaviour issues on their streets linked to local drug dealing and late-night socialising. A trustee and resident have been central to bringing together various stakeholders, including police, residents, businesses and local councillors, to establish a way forward.

We have created new consortia of organisations that want to improve Harlesden from all points of view.

In the last six months, and as identified earlier in the report, we have achieved clear outcomes across all areas. This drives our development and strategy to develop our work based on a community development trust model in the future. As a membership organisation, we liaise with our members and stakeholders monthly with updates and information via our newsletters and hold quarterly forum meetings in addition to projects related to planning, clean air and the environment, transport, safe and active travel and the safety and vitality of our neighbourhood. Since the last report, there has been the addition of a monthly planning meeting, including only planning matters, which have been prioritised due to the nature of our work and several consortium meetings linked with sites we are redeveloping with other members.
