Extensive street clean-ups will start across the borough next week, with the council acting on resident feedback to help Make it Happen for Islington.

Ten years on from the murder of Jo Cox MP, Islington Council is calling for those across the political spectrum and across the country to embody her values of care, tolerance, and respect.  

Cllr Una O’Halloran – Leader of the Council – and Cllr Benali Hamdache – Leader of the Opposition – have today issued a joint statement calling for “tolerance and respect” and modelling the best behaviour from political leaders. At Full Council next month, both parties will come together to commemorate the anniversary. 

Children and young people in Islington with special educational needs and disability typically have “positive experiences” and are “at the centre” of the work to support them, according to inspectors.
