Residents: RBKC Direct

Are you a resident and interested in Council matters? Then RBKC Direct is the newsletter for you.

All councils have residents who take a real interest in local and municipal issues. Few though have anything like as many as we do here in Kensington and Chelsea.

With literally thousands of residents participating in civic life through residents associations or on their own, the Royal Borough is already a big society borough.

The Council has long recognised that much of the borough's quality of life depends on such residents. That's why we want to keep them well informed and where possible call on their active support.

RBKC Direct is an important way we try to achieve these goals. Aimed at active and engaged residents RBKC Direct aims to give its readers an insider-style briefing on the big issues facing the Council; to explain the thinking behind our policies and initiatives and to tell them what we know, when we know it.

Partners Direct

If you belong to one of the voluntary organisations that make up the big society in Kensington and Chelsea; if you work for the police, health service or an Registered Social Landlord; or if you help run a company that works for the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, then Partners Direct is for you.

Partners Direct is a monthly ebulletin aimed at keeping you - our partners - up to speed on the Council's priorities, ambitions and challenges.

If you need to understand our budgetary position, the state of play on major planning and infrastructure projects, or some other strategic issue in the Royal Borough, then Partners Direct is the place to start. Subscribe to Partners Direct

Business Direct

The Council wants to strengthen the way it communicates with its business community and Business Direct is our new emagazine aimed at doing just that.

But don't worry; we have no intention of adding to the spam already cluttering the in-baskets of our entrepreneurs. That's why Business Direct comes to you with a promise: it will only ever cover issues that have the potential to affect your bottom-line.

Our stories will only be about:

major public realm and transport infrastructure projects
large-scale planning issues
parking
law and order
education, employment and training
visitor management
business initiatives

Or other issues that might add or subtract from your customer base or otherwise affect trading conditions in the borough.

In short we aim to avoid PR puffs and offer you high level briefings on matters of clear relevance to the business community. Subscribe to Business Direct
