Here to listen: chat with the Council Leader
The Leader of Wandsworth Council, Councillor Simon Hogg, is holding a series of drop-in sessions around the borough where you can talk to him about the things that matter most to you in your local area.
This is your opportunity to discuss important topics, receive advice and support, find out more about Council services, plans for your local area and share ideas for how to improve your neighbourhood.
