About the project
WESTMINSTER AFTER DARK - DEVELOPING OUR FIRST EVENING AND NIGHT-TIME STRATEGY
From the West End to Harrow Road, Westminster plays a key role in London’s nightlife, supporting good jobs and a world leading array of cultural, entertainment, and culinary attractions.
Westminster City Council is on a mission to create an inclusive Evening and Night-time Strategy to improve the night-life in Westminster. We want our community to be safe, sustainable, inclusive, and accessible.
The evening and night-time should be for dog walkers, mother's picking up their children from after-school clubs, night nurses, as well as businesses, theatregoers, diners and music lovers...
Your ideas matter, whether you're a resident, a visitor, a business owner, or part of a local group. We'll share news, events, and surveys for your input on this platform.
Please join us to make Westminster a more inclusive and dynamic place at night!
