Useful Information

Making a difference in the community where it counts

We would like your views on what should be the future plans for Eton Grove Park. Unlike Youth Centres in other parts of the Borough like Stonebridge, Willesden, Alperton, Vale Farm. We do not have any activities or sports facilities in Queensbury for our Youth. We are seen by Brent Council as well off ward and do not require the facilities. This is not the case now specially with hundreds of houses being build in and around Queensbury ward. Coming with this housing our share of youth drug and drink problems. We feel that we are being short changed by Brent council

Access to green space is a powerful weapon in the fight against obesity and ill-health, especially amongst children. Neglected parks seem to attract anti-social behaviour and have the potential to undermine regeneration of neighbourhoods. In growing areas like Queensbury , good quality parks and open spaces are one of the best ways to ensure new communities blend harmoniously with old.
