Walworth Neighbourhood

Welcome to Walworth Neighbourhood

Walworth is a neighbourhood rich in history, culture and community life. It covers the Newington, Faraday and North Walworth wards and is home to iconic landmarks like East Street Market, Burgess Park and the historic Pullens Estate. With a diverse and vibrant population, Walworth is undergoing major change — and we want local people at the heart of shaping its future.

In 2024, Southwark Council consulted across the borough on our 2030 vision. Together with residents and local organisations, we agreed six bold ambitions for a good life in Southwark: 

The Walworth Neighbourhood Community Plan supports Southwark 2030 goals: 

  • Decent Homes for All 
  • A Good Start in Life 
  • A Safer Southwark 
  • A Strong and Fair Economy 
  • A Healthy Environment 
  • Staying Well 

We know Southwark is a diverse borough with different challenges. We want to know what these ambitions mean for you in your neighbourhood, so we can act on them together and continue to make Walworth a great place to live. 

Through your feedback, we will create a thriving, green, safe, and welcoming community that reflects what matters most to local people. 

Check out what your neighbourhood has already said about its priorities in the "emerging priorities" section, take a look at activities and events near you in "what's on", or have your say on the Community Plan in the "Walworth Neighbourhoods Survey" We want to make sure everyone who lives, works or studies in Walworth has a chance to shape local plans and improvements.
