Town Centre Manager
From Autumn 2025, the Town Centre Manager will
be hosting a series of VisionWorkshops
designed to capture the views of the community and local
stakeholders about the future of Willesden Green.
These workshops will focus on two key
questions:
How should we prioritise
improvements in Willesden Green Town Centre?
What should those improvements
look like?
The outcomes will directly inform future
planning, investment, and partnership initiatives, ensuring that
developments reflect the aspirations and needs of the
community.
Immediate outcome is to develop a menu of
short, medium and long term projects for funding investment.
