Aims & Objectives
The Society’s aim is to ‘preserve the best and improve the rest’ in Waltham Forest by:
Structure
— keeping watch over streets, buildings and open spaces
— monitoring & responding to planning applications
— working with community & environmental groups, voluntary associations, council representatives and schools
We are a campaigning organisation and our scope includes the built environment, green spaces and other factors which affect the quality of life of people living and working in Waltham Forest
We concentrate on activities and campaigns that we can achieve and do well to make a visible impact, and we also engage with other local groups to support their campaigns where these are in line with the aims of the Civic Society
We aim to become a central point for exchange of ideas and information on local community issues, the built environment, green environment and local campaigns
