The Hounslow Recovery Programme Board brings together senior figures from Heathrow, health and community partners, educational establishments, Brentford FC, the Metropolitan Police, and major businesses and developers.
Cllr Steve Curran said: “I’m immensely proud of how the Council, alongside health partners, local organisations, community groups, businesses and volunteers, led Hounslow through the coronavirus crisis. It’s been an inspiring joint effort; we’ve really seen the best of the borough.
“However, the borough now faces the toughest economic downturn in its history, with tens of thousands of jobs at risk. Only by continuing to work together can we effectively support and lead our communities through the tough months ahead, protecting jobs where we can and seizing new opportunities. This board embodies the spirit of collective focus and collaboration, of passion and enthusiasm for the people of Hounslow, that we need.”
