Cllr Clyde Loakes, Leader of Waltham Forest Council

This year over 4,000 new Londoners will be born in Waltham Forest – each with their future still to be determined, each with the almost unlimited possibilities of a dynamic global city open to them. Our ambition is to make the most of London’s opportunities and growing prosperity for all our residents now and in the future.

This Sustainable Community Strategy has been developed by the Council and its partner organisations on the Local Strategic Partnership (LSP). It is about our future. It is about unlocking the potential of Waltham Forest – the borough, its residents and their neighbourhoods. It sets out what we want to achieve for our borough over the next 20 years, and signals our determination to take 'our place in London'.
