The London Borough of Havering has come second in the New Year's Day Parade!

This year's parade in London attracted more than 650,000 spectators and 8,000 participants from Boroughs across London.

Local residents across Havering will benefit from a huge investment programme for the Borough’s roads and pavements.

Veggie Run, Havering Council's healthy eating app, has partnered with the West Ham Foundation to help our children dodge unhealthy food.

The gaming app promotes a healthy diet and rewards children for eating fruit and vegetables.

Following the petition of last year for extra police resources in the Borough, which gathered thousands of signatures throughout Havering, your local Conservatives are pleased to announce that Hornchurch Police Station will remain open.

Ofsted, the inspector of children’s services, has rated Havering Council’s Children’s Services ‘Good’ following their latest inspection.

This August Bank Holiday Weekend, on 26th and 27th, join us to celebrate 40 years of the Havering Show!

The show will be held on both Sunday and Monday at Harrow Lodge Park, Hornchurch, between 11 am and 6pm.

Councillor Damian White, Leader of the Council, said:

A record 14 Green Flags now fly above Havering's Parks.

A Green Flag is awarded for a park that is amongst the best in the country, where they achieve the highest possible standards and include outstanding facilities.

Cllr Osman Dervish, the Cabinet Member for Environment, said:

Havering Council has a new Leader and Mayor following the local elections in May.

Conservatives will be contesting all 54 Havering Council seats in the local elections due to take place on 3 May. Their candidates will include the current Council Leader Roger Ramsey and his Deputy Damian White.

It was a wonderful day for Romford and the whole of Havering as the new Sapphire Ice Rink and Leisure Centre, on Western Road in the town centre, was officially opened on 3rd February.
