Your local councillors, Tim Barnes and Paul Fisher, are proud to represent you
on Westminster City Council.
The West End is a special place with pubs, bars, restaurants, shops, theatres and cinemas that attract visitors
from all over the world. These hospitality businesses are critical to the energy that drew so many of us to live
here and keep us here. But many of them are now facing real difficulties and some face closure. At the same
time, they also contribute to issues such as noise, crime and anti-social behaviour.
Fitzrovia has a wonderful residential feel in the heart of our bustling city with its own café and restaurant feel, but
still within walking distance of all the attractions of the wider West End. We want it to remain that way. Securing
the future of our vibrant community means making sure we get the right balance between world-leading
businesses and entertainment venues on the one hand and residents on the other. So, where does the balance
need to be?
Business and residents combine to make the area what it is today. Making sure the Council gets the balance
right means understanding what residents love about living here and what they want to see change.
So, we are asking you to tell us about your views – what’s working and what needs to change.
Thank you for taking the time to share your views with us.
