Scheme overview - video from RBKC

Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea representatives visit the Silchester Estate and provide a video overview of the works being undertaken by Equans as part of the Council's £40 million capital works programme.

The capital works programme which spans the next five years is designed to make Council homes greener and safer, by refurbishing a huge portion of the buildings RBKC manage.

Lead Member for Housing, Cllr Sof McVeigh, recently visited the Silchester Estate in north Kensington where RBKC are investing more than £40 million to improve residents homes. Improvements are now well underway including repairing concrete and brickwork, replacing windows and upgrading communal areas.

RBKC put residents at the heart of all they do, so they listened when residents said they wanted refurbishment rather than redevelopment, and they've set up working groups and engagement days to make sure residents continue to have a say in how the work is carried out.

"Huge thanks to our contractors, Equans UK & Ireland - In Focus, for their hard work so far!"
