Appendix 4 Executive Summary from Report on Wandsworth Disturbances Appendix 4 Executive Summary from Report on Wandsworth Disturbances 1. This summary encompasses the timeline of events leading up to and including the disorder in Clapham Junction on 8 August 2011, and the key findings of my report. 2. My report reflects the information that has come to me from the Metropolitan Police and Wandsworth Council and the views expressed in the 61 personal interviews, three public meetings and a number of other meetings I have held and in the 35 written responses I have received. This has not been a judicial inquiry nor an in-depth research project. The report is, however, informed by the experiences and the views of those who were directly affected by the disorder.

No heavy police escort but one police van arrives just after 00.13 Further up Lavender Hill, 7 armoured vehicles arrive form east along with 3 other police vehicles. A large number of people are still on the streets 01.00-03.00 Varying reports across Putney, Southside, Balham & Tooting of disorder, fires or looting. Units deployed to each area and no further disorder reported or observed. 03.20 Fire at Party Shop is out 3. The key findings of the report are: 1. The disorder in Clapham Junction, and other parts of Wandsworth, was part of a chain of events that began with the death of Mark Duggan in Tottenham on 4 August and the demonstration that turned into a riot in the same area on 6 August. 2. The primary motivation of those involved in the disorder was criminal opportunism, some of it organised, some disorganised and some involving people who were caught up in the moment. 3. A combination of the physical characteristics of the area and of the events of the day, including extensive social messaging, help to explain why it happened in Clapham Junction on 8 August. 4. A mix of more long-term underlying social and economic factors, some particular to the area, others of more general application, help to explain why some people became involved, and others did not. They do not excuse or justify what happened. 5. The total number of people involved in the disorder in Clapham Junction may have been 450. Early indications are that the proportion under 24 was 65% but only 24% were under 18. This was not a riot by the teenagers of Wandsworth. 6. The information available to the Police from social network sites and elsewhere about potential trouble in Clapham Junction at 5pm on 8 August was scrappy and unreliable. 7. The disorder began on the Winstanley estate at 7.40pm. By 9pm, there were 100-150 looters and potential looters on St. John’s Road, a further 200 on Lavender Hill. The Borough Commander had eight officers with Level 2 public order training and a total of sixty officers altogether. 3 8. The resources available to the Borough Commander were inadequate. That was the result of decisions taken earlier in the day by the Metropolitan Police Control Centre. 9. In the circumstances, the Borough Commander had no choice but to withdraw from St. John’s Road. The owners of the shops and businesses in the area feel that they were left abandoned and unprotected. There was, however, a serious risk that police confrontation with the looters risked much worse violence for them and the public. 10. A total of 109 shops and businesses were damaged in the course of the disorder in Wandsworth, 90 of them in Clapham Junction. 25 were seriously damaged, one gutted by fire. No-one was seriously hurt. 11. The Borough Commander first requested public order trained reinforcements at 8pm. By that point, there was serious disorder in many parts of London. It took until 9.57pm for 75 trained reinforcements to arrive and until 10.38pm for them to begin clearing the streets, which they were able to do by 11.15pm. 12. A fire broke out at the Party Shop at 11.59pm. The Fire and Rescue service were on the scene within fifteen minutes. They received Police protection but they did not come under attack. 13. On 9 August, the main issues were the clear up of the looted area and the making secure of the damaged shops and businesses, and the anxiety that pervaded the community and the Council, that there would be further disorder that evening. 14. The Council organised the clear up and making secure of damaged shops and premises, with the help of a large number of volunteers, the ‘broom army’. The Council’s response is generally considered to have been well-organised and effective. 15. Many shops and restaurants closed early on 9 August. The Town Hall was closed to the public at 3pm and staff sent home at 6pm. There was no further disorder.

  • Battersea Area Guide
    Battersea Area Guide Living in Battersea and Nine Elms Battersea is in the London Borough of Wandsworth and stands on the south bank of the River Thames, spanning from Fairfield in the west to Queenstown in the east. The area is conveniently located just 3 miles from Charing Cross and easily accessible from most parts of Central London. The skyline is dominated by Battersea Power Station and its four distinctive chimneys, visible from both land and water, making it one of London’s most famous landmarks. Battersea’s most famous attractions have been here for more than a century. The legendary Battersea Dogs and Cats Home still finds new families for abandoned pets, and Battersea Park, which opened in 1858, guarantees a wonderful day out. Today Battersea is a relatively affluent neighbourhood with wine bars and many independent and unique shops - Northcote Road once being voted London’s second favourite shopping street. The SW11 Literary Festival showcases the best of Battersea’s literary talents and the famous New Covent Garden Market keeps many of London’s restaurants supplied with fresh fruit, vegetables and flowers. Nine Elms is Europe’s largest regeneration zone and, according the mayor of London, the ‘most important urban renewal programme’ to date. Three and half times larger than the Canary Wharf finance district, the future of Nine Elms, once a rundown industrial district, is exciting with two new underground stations planned for completion by 2020 linking up with the northern line at Vauxhall and providing excellent transport links to the City, Central London and the West End.

As places of worship they offer a space for members to connect with each other and God, in a well known setting. 1. Identifying needs 8 And yet we rarely consider how our church building is seen by those who aren’t members of the congregation and how it could bring value and benefit to our local communities and Local knowledge residents. Fractured community Lack of activities What are the needs that this building could help meet? And ultimately, if our building were a person, how it could serve those in society who need it the most? 2. How could St Peter’s respond? 12 With a new church building set for completion in Autumn 2018, it is answers to these questions that St Peter’s church wanted to know. With a vision to “share the love of Jesus Which groups should St Peter’s be helping? in Battersea and beyond”, the church wanted to learn how they could use their new building Youth and elderly to “serve those most in need” in the local community. 2 Creating a safe space Following consultation in 2017, St Peter’s asked Eido to learn from the local community exactly what those needs are, and how they can best meet them with their new building.

  • Battersea Arts Centre Lavender Hill London SW11 5TN Planning Policy Environment and Community Services Town Hall Wandsworth High Street London SW18 2PU
    Battersea Arts Centre Lavender Hill London SW11 5TN Planning Policy Environment and Community Services Town Hall Wandsworth High Street London SW18 2PU 23 February 2021 Dear Sir/Madam ‘Pre-Publication’ Draft Local Plan The Clapham Junction Business Improvement District (BID) Ltd exists to provide services to sustain and enhance the environment for businesses and the community in the Clapham Junction area. Like our sister BIDs in Putney and Wandsworth, we would welcome the opportunity to work with the Council to help fulfil the aspirations set out in the Plan, and to make the improvements that are so desperately needed in the town centre. We trust that our role will be properly recognised in the next version of the Plan. The new Local Plan comes at a critical time for businesses as they seek to recover from the Covid-19 crisis, and to respond to the changes in consumers’ and visitors’ behaviour that have been accelerated by the pandemic. In our area, these difficulties are exacerbated by the likelihood that any major re-development of Clapham Junction station will be deferred for many years. This deferment risks casting a blight on any significant developments in the core of the town centre, at a time when an entirely new town centre is about to be opened only a short distance away at Battersea Power Station. Yet further threats arise from recent changes in Government policy, including the creation of the new Class E to cover the great majority of commercial and community uses, thus restricting the Council’s ability to manage changes of use; restrictions on the use of Article 4 directions to protect specific uses; and the proposed extension of permitted development rights to allow any commercial property, anywhere, to be converted to residential use.
