Exciting things have been happening in Caledonian Ward over the past six months. In July, the Cally Festival saw over 6,000 people come to the Caledonian Road, to experience some fantastic entertainment and more importantly to see what the shops and services in the area have to offer. Since then, Team Cally has been working hard to build on the success of the Festival and is bringing many of the local traders together to work to improve the shopping experience for everyone using the Caledonian Road.
We are proud to announce that thanks to this work, the Caledonian Road will not only be one of the few shopping destinations in Islington that will have Christmas lights this year, but that the lights will be sponsored by the traders themselves.
We can all achieve more if we work together. Team Cally has been set up to improve the way that decisions are taken in our area. The Ward Partnership is led by the three local Councillors so that services are better coordinated and really meet the needs of local people. Team Cally coordinates the meetings of the Caledonian Ward Partnership, which is a twice-yearly meeting of residents, local organisations and members of the Team Cally Partnership.
We would like to invite you to the next Ward Partnership meeting so that we can tell you more about how Team Cally is working to change more things for the better in the ward, and to hear your views on how else things can be improved.
The agenda includes, emerging developments on the Kings Cross Central site, feedback from the Cally Festival and reviewing the Team Cally ward priorities.
The meeting is an opportunity for you as residents to meet your local ward councillors, shape the future of neighbourhood management in the Caledonian Ward and decide the priorities for Team Cally. We hope that you will join us.
Your meeting is on:
Wednesday 30 November, 6.30pm to 8.30pm
Jean Stokes Community Centre
Carnoustie Drive
N1 0DY
