Council remains firmly opposed to Thames Water's Teddington abstraction proposals
Despite welcome reductions in the number of shafts required in Thames Water’s Teddington Direct River Abstraction project, we remain firm in our opposition to the scheme not least due to water quality concerns and to the continued impacts of what are still a range of significant construction sites on valuable open spaces within the borough.
Richmond is officially a Borough of Sanctuary
We are proud to announce that Richmond upon Thames has been awarded Borough of Sanctuary status by City of Sanctuary UK. This accreditation recognises the work we've done to date, including developing a three-year Richmond Sanctuary Strategy and a commitment made to welcome, support, and empower sanctuary seekers living in the borough.

Enjoy a family day out with our Swim and Stay sessions
From Monday 22 July, the grounds at Pools on the Park will open for our popular Swim and Stay sessions. For the first time we will be offering two bookable sessions each day to ensure that as many people as possible can make use of the facility. Sessions will run from 11am to 2pm and 3pm to 6pm. If you want to make a day of it, you can book both sessions.
