Next KERA Committee meeting is on the 14th of May

Hello Kambala residents,

We hope you’re all enjoying the lovely weather!

We’re pleased to let you know that KERA’s next public committee meeting will take place on Wednesday, 14th May 2025, from 7:00 PM to 8:30 PM at the Kambala Community Clubroom, SW11 2LU.

We’re happy to confirm that Laura Gavin from the Eastern Area Housing Team and Vanessa Santos will be joining us. We’ve also invited a representative from the Waste Management Team to help address any questions or concerns you may have about bin collection or fly tipping which was a popular topic when we collected the signatures in March.

Please help us spread the word—share this information with any neighbours who aren’t on the Kambala WhatsApp group or may not be aware of our website.

The meeting agenda is currently being finalised and will be posted on all our noticeboards as soon as it’s ready.

We look forward to seeing you there!

“Beyond the Bridge” Co-design Workshop

Today, I had my Chair of Kambala Estate Residents Association hat on 🎩, attending the inspiring “Beyond the Bridge” co-design workshop hosted by POor Collective at St Peter’s Battersea.

The session focused on gathering ideas and taking part in shaping the Falcon Road Bridge’s exciting transformation alongside fellow community members.
What I truly love about this project is how community voices are being placed at the heart of the design process. It’s not just about creating something visually striking—it’s about building something together, that reflects the people who live here. It was also an opportunity to catch up with Roopa Basu and Jeanne Rathbone.


Looking forward to seeing this vision come to life! ❤️

KERA Website Revamped

We’re excited to announce that the Kambala Residents’ Association website has been revamped—with a new name and a fresh look!

You can now find us at www.mykambala.co.uk.
We chose this name because Kambala is more than just an estate

It’s our home, our community, and “My Kambala” belongs to all of us.

Our email has also changed to [email protected], making it easier to reach us.

The updated website will keep you informed about events, community projects, resident updates, and ways to get involved. Check it out and stay connected! 💙🏡

Help Us Keep KERA Accredited!

Kambala Residents’ Association will soon be knocking on doors to collect signatures from at least 20% of our residents—a requirement to remain an accredited Resident Association. We must complete this process by the end of March 2025.

To make the process smoother, we’re looking for volunteers from each block to help collect signatures from their neighbors. Having a familiar face makes a big difference!

If you can help, please reach out via our Residents’ WhatsApp group or email us at [email protected].

One of our KERA committee member will contact you back, bring you the form and collect the signatures wit you on your chosen time.

Your support keeps our community strong—thank you! 💙🏡

Seven Rings, Seven Days

KERA welcomes this news from Wandsworth Council as it will benefit our residents and hopefully help improve the current flytipping situation happening in our estate

The dedicated contact number of 0208 871 6000, which a member of staff will answer within 7 rings, was launched on 30 January together with a new promise that residents reporting graffiti, a dangerous pothole or broken street sign will see it fixed in 7 days.

The council is also offering every household two free bulky waste collections a year – saving households up to £47 each – to help achieve cleaner streets across the borough. Weekly waste collections and recycling collections are also guaranteed, alongside the expansion of much-loved Mega Skip Days.
