The Hampton and Hampton North Working Together Group


Cllr Darren Thornton Originally the


group was called the Hampton North Working Together Group, but as a resident of Hampton North I see my area as being part of Hampton.


The main aim/objective of the group is to improve life for the inhabitants of Hampton and Hampton North by advancing education and providing facilities for social welfare and health; preserving the character and amenities of the neighbourhood; and fostering and developing community spirit.


So who are the Hampton and Hampton North Working Together Group (HHNWTG)? We are a group of local residents and professionals, who live, work or have an interest in the wards of Hampton and Hampton North.


What does the HHNWTG aim to do specifically?

3. To enable community empowerment by providing a forum where community representatives can take part in decision making locally, either by participation in the HHNWTG group or by involvement in community projects.


We are currently writing an action plan for the wards on how we can improve them, the four main headings will be along the lines of:


To Improve Hampton and Hampton North’s Environment


To increase involvement in long term learning


To increase involvement in the life of the community


To improve physical and mental health of the residents
