This project has concluded - thank you for your feedback


The council developed a project with the community in the Highbury and Mildmay wards in Islington to increase understanding of air quality in the local area.

As part of this air quality project we: 

  • increased air pollution monitoring across Highbury and Mildmay

  • created a new website for the community with real-time air quality data, providing quicker and clearer air quality monitoring results

  • ran citizen science workshops for residents to participate in the collection of air quality monitoring data in their local area

  • delivered events celebrating the project and local community

  • gathered your opinion through surveys and focus groups

Next steps:

We are completing a final project report, which will cover all project outputs, and will update this page shortly.


Results of surveys and focus groups:

We asked for your thoughts through:

  • An initial pre-project survey: asking for local people's feedback about air pollution, to help us get a better idea of what you think about this issue and help us tailor the project moving forward.
  • A follow up post-project survey: asking for local people's feedback about air pollution, to help us see whether there have been any changes over the project and steps we still need to take.
  • A website specific survey: asking for feedback on the new real-time website, to help us identify how the website could be improved.
  • Two website focus groups: asking for feedback on the new real-time website, to help us identify how the website could be improved.

You can read a summary of what people told us.
