Islington Council’s efforts to re-imagine public spaces and create a cleaner, greener, healthier borough are continuing with the launch of a new programme to support local people to create, plant, and care for new green spaces in the borough.  

Islington Council is set to make 13 of its School Streets permanent, after monitoring data and feedback from local people reflected their positive impact in creating a cleaner, greener, healthier, and safer school run.   

Islington Council has unveiled plans to make Highbury Fields cleaner, greener, and healthier, and is inviting local people to have their say.   

Islington Council is today inviting local people to have their say on the Highbury people-friendly streets neighbourhoods, which monitoring data shows has helped deliver cleaner, greener, healthier streets.   

Local people have helped create a cleaner, greener, healthier future for Islington by supporting the council’s pioneering Islington Greener Futures investment to reach its £1 million target.   

There’s less than a week to go before the deadline for Islington Greener Futures, and local people are being invited to play their part in creating a cleaner, greener, healthier borough by investing.   

Islington Council has launched an exciting new tool which calculates local people’s carbon footprints and advises them on the pledges they can make to help create a cleaner, greener, healthier future. 

Ironmonger Row Baths swimming pool will reopen on Monday 24 January for all users - including school swimming and Better Swim School.

The council has closely studied monitoring data and listened carefully to feedback on the Canonbury East people-friendly streets neighbourhood, and will now introduce an exemption scheme for Blue Badge holders living in the neighbourhood.   

Following the fire on 6 January, GLL and Islington Council have been working closely together to reopen facilities at Ironmonger Row Baths as soon as it is safe to do so.

We would like to thank our leisure centre staff and London Fire Brigade for their very prompt response to the fire at Ironmonger Row Baths on 6^th January. 

Islington Council has today (Wednesday, 22 December) published a report showing feedback on the St Peter’s people-friendly streets neighbourhood which, alongside recent monitoring data, reflects the scheme’s positive impact.
