KARA (Swindon)

Kingshill Area Residents' Association

History

In August 2010 a group of a dozen residents met together to discuss the possibility of forming a Residents’ Association to represent the Kingshill area in Swindon. At that meeting we talked about an organisation that can campaign and lobby on behalf of local residents, an organisation that can strive to enhance local community cohesion and an organisation made up of neighbours who care about the Kingshill area and want to make it an even better area in which to live. Following that meeting, we leafleted local streets and held a meeting at the Clifton Inn (thank you!) in September where we formally adopted our constitution and elected our Committee and Road Representatives. It was suggested at that meeting that we should expand to include Radnor Street, Shelley Street and Fairview and they were adopted into KARA – welcome! At that meeting was a representative from Swindon Borough Council, a local ward Councillor, Neighbourhood Watch Co-ordinator and members of the Neighbourhood Policing Team. Around 40 local residents attended and raised issues effecting them at a very local level. We look forward to KARA growing bigger and stronger and really making a difference for the local Kingshill area. Thank you for your ongoing support and we look forward to working with you!

Nicky Sewell, Chair
