Kilburn Neighbourhood Plan Forum
Kilburn spreads along
Kilburn High Road from
Shoot Up Hill in the North to Maida Vale in the
South, with Queens Park
in the West and West
Hampstead in the East. Around 40,000 people
either live, work or volunteer in the area.
There is a long history of campaigning for improvements in Kilburn. Administratively, Kilburn is divided by Kilburn High Road, between the Borough of Brent and Borough of Camden. In each case, the Kilburn Ward is somewhat distant from the Boroughs’ centres of gravity and the main offices of the Councils. The Kilburn Neighbourhood Plan will provide, for the first time, the opportunity to define Kilburn as a place recognised formally, united by the Kilburn High Road and able to help decide its future.

The Plan sets out the local community’s aspirations for Kilburn over the period to 2031 and establishes policies in relation to its land use and development. These are policies that will influence future planning applications and decisions in the area. But, the Neighbourhood Plan is much more than this. It represents the community’s manifesto for our Neighbourhood Forum.
Neighbourhood Plans were introduced with new legislation in April 2012 giving a locally defined Neighbourhood Area influence over planning policies for the future development and growth of the neighbourhood. Kilburn Neighbourhood Plan Forum (KNPF) was designated in June 2016.
