Covent Garden London
The heart of London's West End
The Odhams Walk Residents' Association
TOWRA had a productive year. The big event was the opening of the on-site estate office in early April. The residents' management organisation now have their own office, G62B Odhams Walk, an annual budget and a lump sum to carry out external decorations. We are very grateful to all those who helped establish this over the past four years. We appointed a part time administrator, Gary Nolan (Tel 7379 6005), who works the other half of the week with Martlett Court. He has made an excellent start and given us much help. We are lucky that Mark East continues as our caretaker and handyman.
The main issues over the year are those common to all in Covent Garden. The noise - with thanks for help from Westminster Noise Team. Crime - with thanks to the local police for helping patrol and control some unruly teenagers coming from outside the estate. We hope funding will increase to allow more police on the beat. The rubbish - with thanks to WCC for all their efforts, but please could you try even harder. The nightlife - we can only hope we do not follow Soho.
After two years as Chairman, I resigned at the May AGM to give someone else a go and Geoff Mack has now kindly volunteered to Chair TOWRA in the future. We hope that the majority of issues on the estate will be handled through the management organisation in the new office.
