What is this activity?

Creative People & Places Hounslow is all about supporting local people to make decisions about the creative activity that happens in our borough. Hounslow is a big place, and each area has a distinct local character. For that reason, planning is led by ‘Local Advisory Groups’ (LAGs). Each Local Advisory Group is made up of people who live, work or have a connection to Hounslow, and who have a passion for shaping its future. They take the lead on everything from imagining new ideas to the practicalities of making them happen.

No special experience is needed to become a member of your LAG, just a love for your area and a willingness to get stuck in. People from a whole range of backgrounds are really welcome - in fact, that’s what makes our advisory groups so special. In return, you’ll find a welcoming community of neighbours, plenty of support to make your ideas reality, and perhaps an opportunity to learn something new.

“We, as a group, have achieved incredible things, and the events and classes that the LAG have brought into fruition, with local residents’ input, has been nothing short of inspiring” - Local Advisory Group member

Each of Hounslow’s LAGs has different aims, unique plans, and a distinct local character and personality.
