Ealing (Parliament Politics Magazine) – Conservative councillors joined Ealing Broadway residents in a community clean-up, tackling fallen leaves and boosting pavement safety amid rising seasonal concerns.
Further more than 80 bags of leaves were gathered during the Sunday, November 16, 2025, clean- up, which concentrated on the thoroughfares girding St. Stephen’s Church, The Avenue, and Wimborne auditoriums.
The bid takes place in advance of the Ealing Council choices listed on May 7, 2026.
Seema Kumar, a council member, stated that the ward’s pavement keep was still an issue and that she had been putting pressure on the Labour- run Ealing Council to keep the thoroughfares free of obstructions.
She said:
“Messy pavements are not only an eyesore but a safety hazard. While council officers have been supportive, I’ve kept the pressure on to make sure our streets are properly cared for. Today’s cleanup shows what can be achieved when councillors and residents work together and the positive feedback from the community speaks volumes.”
Ealing Conservatives leader Councillor Julian Gallant thanked those who took part, he said:
“A huge thank you to everyone who turned out. Filling over 80 bags shows what we can achieve as a community.”
Sean Hanrahan, Ealing Broadway Conservative candidate, said fallen leaves created both mess and slipping hazards, adding:
“Fallen leaves can make our streets slippery and messy, so it was fantastic to get stuck in alongside residents and do our bit.”
Which streets in Ealing Broadway were prioritised for leaf clearance?
The thoroughfares prioritised for splint concurrence in Ealing Broadway are those around crucial public places, including areas outside seminaries, hospitals, and day centres where the city’s most vulnerable residents walk. Following these, shopping areas and public transport stations admit precedence, also steep hills with slippery shells, and eventually other thoroughfares where heavy splint fall could block rainspouts and produce a flood tide threat.
The council has reviewed locales with the heaviest splint fall and is targeting these for over to 12 weeks during the afterlife season. Ealing Council also deploys redundant road sweeping brigades equipped with splint boasters to respond snappily to other reported lush thoroughfares.
Leaf concurrence in Ealing Broadway focusses first on vulnerable rambler areas like seminaries and hospitals, followed by marketable and conveyance capitals, steep thoroughfares, and areas prone to flooding due to splint blockage.
