29 August 2026 · By Boroughly editorial — AI-assisted, human-reviewed.
Richmond Council is inviting residents, businesses and community groups to help shape a new borough-wide Lighting Strategy, with five evening workshops spread across different neighbourhoods throughout September.
The sessions will cover themes including safety, wellbeing, sustainability and the local environment — effectively asking people what they want lighting to do for their streets, parks and town centres in the years ahead.
The schedule is as follows:
- Monday 8 September — Heath Road area: Patch Twickenham, 42 York Street, TW1 3BW, 7–9pm
- Tuesday 9 September — Teddington High Street: Landmark Arts Centre, Ferry Road, TW11 9NN, 7–9pm
- Wednesday 10 September — Richmond Town Centre: Richmond Library, Little Green, TW9 1QL, 7–9pm
- Thursday 11 September — Whitton: Whitton Library, 141 Nelson Road, TW2 7BB, 7–9pm
- Monday 29 September — Hampton Hill: Hampton Hill Theatre, 90 High Street
Each event runs from 7pm to 9pm and is free to attend. Registration links for each venue are listed on the council's news page. If your neighbourhood is covered, this is a straightforward way to influence something that affects every evening walk, school run and late-night journey home.
Full details and registration links are on the Richmond Council website.
