Welcome to the West Acton Residents' Association (WARA) Web Site.

Demonstration for Acton's Green Corridor Strategy

On Saturday 12th December 2009 at 10:30 - 11:00, there will be a demonstration on the A40 along at Gypsy Corner to promote the desire of local residents to get the requirements of Ealing Council’s A40 Acton: Green Corridor Strategy implemented.

 

This is the official site of the West Acton Residents Association, also known as WARA. Please use the navigation panels above and to the right to look around the site.

WARA is an active committee, and our explicit aim is to protect the interests of West Acton residents.

There are no shortage of issues, and we believe that there must be more which we have not yet covered. So, if there is an issue close to your hearts that you think should be aired, waste no time in getting in contact with us, and we will try to deal with it as soon as possible.

Meetings

Public meetings are held on a regular basis, and serve as an additional platform for bringing to the forefront any burning issues.

All residents are welcome at the meetings, but we do require that non-members join the association, and pay a very reasonable annual membership fee of just £5 (OAPs £2.50).

Short History

Having formed in 2003, WARA celebrated its fourth birthday in September 2007. In this time it has fought various campaigns with some notable areas of success. Check out the campaigns page to review some of these.

The Area

The Residents Association covers an area largely bounded between two railway lines and the A40. To the west the boundary is the Central Line (A40 to just past West Acton station), and to the east the boundary is the National Rail lines (Acton Main Line to Twyford Avenue road bridge). Gypsy Corner is at the north-east extremity of WARA. The area includes approximately 1500 residences. Check out the map to see the area.
