    Dear Resident,

    Thank you for submitting your question regarding parking on Church Road in Heston.

    To explore the possibility of introducing permit-only parking on Church Road, residents will need to submit a petition. This petition is essential to gather support from the community and formally request the change. You can start the petition process by following the link below:


    Once the petition is submitted, it will be reviewed by the appropriate departments for consideration. We encourage you to share this information with your neighbours to ensure broad support.

    If you need any further assistance or clarification, please contact Thomas.Ribbits@hounslow.gov.uk, who oversees the administration of petitions at the Council.

    Dear Resident,

    Thank you for your question, and I apologise for the delay in getting back to you.

    Please find below the response provided by the Council’s Refugee and Asylum Seeker and Housing Migration teams: 

    An individual who has received a decision on their asylum claim may receive a positive decision granting them Refugee or Humanitarian Protection Status. This status entitles the individuals to rights and entitlements to live, work and study in the UK for up to 5 years. It does not confer, however, Indefinite Leave to Remain until after 5 years have been completed. (Right To Remain: Home Office Asylum Decision)

    Local Authorities in the UK have no influence or any jurisdiction on how and when newly-recognised refugees are vacated from hotels. Newly-recognised refugees who are given a positive decision are signposted by the Home Office to Local Authorities in their area to address their housing needs.  

    Anyone who is worried about becoming homeless in the next 56 days can contact the Housing Options Teams. The below link, available to all residents contains useful information and advice (to note that this is a new website and subject to ongoing changes/updates)  https://beta.hounslow.gov.uk/homelessness/homeless-worried-becoming-homeless

    If you are worried about an individual facing homelessness and who needs support and advice, please access the link above.
