About us


The Earl’s Court Society started life in the 1970's formed by the much loved and missed Jennifer and David Ware , firstly under the name of the Earl's Court Residents Association later the Earl's Court Neighbourhood Association before finally becoming the Earl's Court Society 

The Earl's Court Society is an organisation that represents the interests of all residents who live in the Earl’s Court area covering the same ground  based on the original Earl’s Manorial Lands currently comprising the Council Wards of Earl's Court, Courtfield, Abingdon and Redcliffe.

The primary functions of the organisation are to deal with Planning and Licensing ( including the development site at Earl's Court) , Environment, Crime and ASB,  Health, Housing and Welfare , Highways and Traffic, Local History ( preservation and conservation) and with all those matters  lobbying and advising the Council on behalf of the residents of the area .

We want to make the organisation more inclusive and promote a sense of community well-being in this diverse, multi-cultural inner London area facing massive changes.


OUR OBJECTIVES

Protecting, preserving and improving local buildings and amenities

Formulating planning advice for the area.

Representing and expressing the views of all members of the Earl's Court community, including residents, businesses and those working in the area.

Supporting and encouraging Residents' Associations and community organisations

Promoting the commercial well-being of the area

Acting when required as an Advisory Group to the RBKC Council and as a Forum bringing together statutory, voluntary and commercial bodies with the RBKC Council and residents.

It is important to make clear that Earl's Court society is not a political party and is not alligned to any political party in any way in its operation, all are welcome whoever they may or may not support.  

We do of course work with council and various Ward Counillors for the well being of the neighbourhood and Councillors may attend at times by invitation to discuss certain matters in their roles as Councillors wheer we have asked them to do so . 

We wish to make clear that some who are Ward Councillors are also Earl's Court Society members and may attend meetings , sit or chair some groups. However this is done in their own name as individuals or on behalf of their Residents Associations etc , but not in their capacity as a Councillor
