Congratulations to Malcolm Penny, an ERA Committee Member, on his silver Helping Communities Award. Malcolm has been an Eastcote resident for more than 40 years. The award recognises his contributions to the community in chairing the Executive Committee of the 4th Eastcote Scouts for 30 years and also helping maintain Eastcote House Gardens and organising litter picks in Eastcote. Well done!
Thank you to everyone who made the time to attend our ‘Improving how the Green Belt functions on London’s Fringe’ conference last month at Brunel University and for responding to our Feedback survey.

How Can We Best Conserve The Green Belt? Planning Conference Starts Conversation
From this web page you can download the presentations and also watch the recording of the conference. That means that if you were unable to attend you now have the opportunity to watch it at your leisure, thanks to Brunel University’s Audio Visual department.
We are delighted that the conference has stimulated the conversations we hoped for. Please continue to watch the Colne Valley Regional Park Website for updates as the conversation continues.
Thank you again for your support and joining us in our resolve to protect this fragile area of Green Belt.
Kind regards

From 7am on Tuesday 11 April to 7am on Saturday 15 April, doctors at many NHS Trusts will be on strike, including The Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. NHS services will be under a huge amount of pressure, so it is important for our residents to know where to go if they need help during this time.
Junior doctors make up almost 50% of all NHS doctors, and play a vital role in providing care for patients. During the four-day strike, hospitals will be doing everything they can to keep disruption to a minimum, prioritising patients who need urgent and emergency care.
Planned tests and hospital appointments may be changed or rearranged and we are keen to get this message out to the residents of Hillingdon.
For patients that have an appointment next week: If you have not been contacted, please attend your appointment as planned. The NHS will contact you if your appointment needs to be rescheduled due to strike action. Your care will not be stopped, but it may be delayed.
For non-emergency health needs, there are alternative NHS services available that can help get you the care you need:
NHS 111: Fully trained health professionals are available, 24/7, to help if you need medical help or advice, or you are unsure about whether you should go to hospital. You can contact NHS 111 online, or by calling 111.
Your GP: The majority of practices in north west London will remain open during the strike, though many will be under increased pressure. Do continue to attend your GP and dental appointments unless you have been contacted and told otherwise.
It is important that patients who do need urgent medical care still continue to come forward, especially in emergency and life-threatening cases.
By doing what you can to look after yourselves and others, and checking in on vulnerable family members and neighbours, you can help us make sure that the doctors who are on duty can provide care to patients who need it most.

Young people, families, carers, partner agencies and community organisations are invited to have their say on new proposals for the youth offer for Hillingdon.
The borough’s current offer is mainly a static, single-use buildings-based model. Attendance rates have dropped, and young people have told the council that they would prefer services to be closer to home and in different formats.
The proposed new youth offer sets out the council’s commitment to creating a wider programme of more modern, relevant, flexible and digital services for young people to receive the support they need, in their communities, to help them reach their potential.
To view the strategy and have your say, visit www.hillingdon.gov.uk/youth-offer-strategy before Monday 5 June.
