Hillingdon u3a update
It seems that, although u3a was coined as an acronym for University of the Third Age, the ‘university’ word carried too many implications. What follows is a more accurate description gleaned from the Hillingdon u3a website:
Based in West London, Hillingdon u3a provides many educational, creative and leisure opportunities for its members in a friendly environment. This is achieved by its members running over 80 interest groups. You can see the list of these in the Groups page. Hillingdon u3a is well established having formed 24 years ago and now has over 850 members across the Ruislip, Ickenham, Uxbridge, Hillingdon, Hayes and West Drayton area. It also has an active social programme of monthly meetings, visits, walks, concerts, theatre trips and a regular members’ newsletter.
Recent notices from LBH
This one has been posted on this week’s planning list from LBH
https://planning.hillingdon.gov.uk/OcellaWeb/planningDetails?reference=62963/APP/2024/3371&from=planningSearch
comments to be in by 20th March 2025
(there is also the possibility of one at Hillingdon Circus)
And word of this one has already been doing the rounds:
We are proposing a change to our garden waste collection service to make it more sustainable.
The proposed change would see the introduction of a £70 charge for 2025/26 for the collection of a household’s garden waste. The charge would support the running costs of the service and ensure it’s paid for by those using it – rather than the cost being shared by all taxpayers, including those without gardens.
Our garden waste collection service would continue to offer residents:
• better value for money than neighbouring boroughs through a cheaper rate per collection
• weekly collections in spring, summer and autumn
• greater capacity of collected garden waste than other boroughs.
Residents without a subscription would still be able to take their garden waste to our civic amenity sites for free.

Ickenham ward surgery
from Cllr Lavery
The Ickenham Library ward surgery has now been running for several months. We are still seeing a very low attendance.
We have therefore decided to revert to our previous practice of seeing residents face to face (if required )by appointment. The majority of queries we receive are via email or telephone.
If there are any queries please contact me.01895 250659
