switch. Once 5,000 households have<br />
expressed their interest by registering, T.H.E.<br />
Community Power will negotiate with energy<br />
providers to secure a cheaper deal on your<br />
befalf.<br />

Aberfeldy gets healthy<br />
IN EARLY SUMMER, a Lottery funded programme<br />
called ‘Well London’ spoke to 150 residents<br />
from the Aberfeldy estate and asked them what<br />
made a healthy community. The aim was to<br />
involve residents to deliver projects, access<br />
training and develop solutions to local health<br />
problems. If you are interested in finding out<br />
more, being involved or volunteering for this<br />
project, please contact: Vicky Coakley or Patrick<br />
Harrison on 020 7515 6794.<br />
On 1 October the law changes and <strong>Poplar</strong> <strong>HARCA</strong> will no longer be able to tow away vehicles<br />
parked on our estates. We have no control over this.<br />
If someone is parking in your bay you should call 01992 764520 and let our<br />
contractor, Elite Car Parking, know. They will issue you with a number to<br />
display in your vehicle so you will not receive a parking ticket if you park<br />
somewhere else on the estate until whoever is parked in your bay drives<br />
away. The vehicle parked in your bay will be ticketed, and we will be treating<br />
repeat breaches as anti social behaviour and using enforcement powers to<br />
tackle people who break the parking rules on our estates.<br />
if you have any queries about this, or anything else to do with parking, please<br />
call 0800 035 1991.<br />
