Our Community
In H&F we are a community of 185,000 people living in a relatively wealthy part of one of the richest cities in the world.
But families across the Borough continue to face hardship with the high cost of living.
We know that inequalities persist within the Borough and that too many families’ lives are blighted by poverty, domestic abuse, poor air quality, crime and loneliness.
H&F is the 5th smallest borough in England by size and 6th most most densely populated.
27.7% of children in H&F are living in poverty
9.9% of residents earn below the London Living Wage
