The Carpenters Estate - December 2021 Newspaper & Update

Read the full newspaper here .

A message from the mayor:

After years of false promises and the failures of the past, I am over the moon that residents on the Carpenters Estate, including those who have a right to return, have decisively voted ‘yes’ in support of this people-powered masterplan.

When I became Mayor, I put an end to the Council’s previous joint venture plans and made a promise to residents to work collaboratively with them on the future of the estate as their advocate who will always be on their side.

Since that time, and over three years on, hundreds of hours of conversations in meetings and workshops have given the green light to this next chapter of hope for the Carpenters Estate.

I am excited for its future and for local residents who will benefit from over £1 billion of Council investment in high-quality new homes they can afford, and a wonderful community centre which will be the thriving heart of the estate. After so many years of being let down, they finally have certainty about the future of the Carpenters Estate.

I can’t wait to see it transform into a vibrant neighbourhood for our people in Newham to live in and call home.

Best wishes,

Mayor Rokhsana Fiaz
