Ward budget scheme

The highly popular ward budget scheme gives each of the boroughs wards their own budget to spend on local projects.

Following the May 2022 local election, there are 53 ward councillors representing Hillingdon's 21 wards. Each ward has an allocated amount to make a difference for the communities in their ward.
