A serious collision has closed West Drayton High Street after a pedestrian was reportedly struck by a vehicle. Emergency services, including an air ambulance, remain at the scene as investigations continue.

Hillingdon Council plans to close the beloved Rural Activities Garden Centre, threatening vital social care support for vulnerable volunteers. Community groups and residents stand united to fight this misguided decision and demand real investment in local services—not cuts.

Despite rain dampening the day, the Mayor’s annual picnic at Cowley Recreation Ground brought the community together in support of local charities. Featuring live music, family fun, and heartfelt speeches, the event raised vital funds for the Stroke Association and SEND services — proving that Hillingdon’s spirit shines bright come rain or shine.
