Free Enhanced Health Checks (EHCs) are available at different community venues around North Kensington during May and June.

These half hour appointments with a dedicated clinician are a popular way for North Kensington residents living and working in the area, who have been affected by the Grenfell Tower fire, to support their health and wellbeing.

Consisting of a basic health review and respiratory check there's also the opportunity to discuss any other concerns you may have. Onward referrals will be made by the clinician, if necessary. 

RBKC Council is inviting organisations to submit quotations for the administration function of the Safer Neighbourhood Board (SNB) from, on or around 1 June 2025 to 31 March 2027.

Please find linked below the detailed Service Specification document outlining the requirements of the service. If your organisation can meet these requirements, please complete and return the Response Form, also linked below, by 5pm on 9 May 2025 via email to Khalid Mousa at [email protected].

Projects in the local area focusing on improving physical infrastructure which benefits the community can apply for funding through the Neighbourhood Community Infrastructure Levy (NCIL). 

Examples of projects could be local gardening initiatives, improving community facilities or traffic calming measures.

The Council are holding 3 upcoming drop-in sessions where you can find out more about the funding, including understanding the assessment criteria and getting help with the application process.

No need to book, just pop into on of the NCIL drop-ins.
