The St John’s Wood Society is an incredibly active local amenity society, and through its engagement with its neighbourhood, it plays a key role in preserving the character of St John’s Wood.
Over summer recess, Nickie Aiken sat down with Virginia Newman, the Vice-Chair of the Society, and Linda Taggart, its Police Liaison, alongside Regent's Park ward councillors Ralu Oteh-Osoka, Robert Rigby, and Paul Swaddle, to discuss the tremendous work the Society does in supporting the local community.
From securing £2m public realm investment in the High Street to encouraging people to shop locally, the Society is a force to be reckoned with, and what it has done for the high street is amazing.
On a walkabout of the High Street, they discussed the key challenges that local people and businesses face and how the society’s vision for St John’s Wood seeks to address these issues.
If you are interested in supporting the society’s work or becoming a member, Nickie encourages you to visit their website.
