Forever home

Our new neighbourhoods approach sets out a new vision for residents, councillors and staff that proudly celebrates our local neighbourhoods.

Thriving education

We announced the University’s exciting plans in March 2022 and work has been going on behind the scenes to make the London campus a reality.

Makers and creators

A historic industrial district of Waltham Forest, Blackhorse Lane, has been accredited as a Creative Enterprise Zone, a pioneering initiative by the Mayor of London.

Inclusive economy

Our thriving local economy is a huge priority for the council, and we fully invest in supporting our businesses however we can.

World-class creativity

Waltham Forest is a place where world-class creativity thrives and we embrace our creative sectors through our inward investment programme. 

Opportunities and areas

There are a number of key opportunity sites for investment in Waltham Forest. Investment in transport links, schools, public facilities, and town centres, make Waltham Forest a great place to live, changing all the time.
