Residents on Loraine Estate have the power to decide how to spend £70,000 on improving health and wellbeing across the estate.

Residents can come up with ideas about how to spend the money with their neighbours. In December 2025, you and your neighbours will then vote for the ideas you want to see funded.

This is supported and funded by your ward councillors – Cllr Claire Zammit, Cllr Jason Jackson and Cllr Diarmaid Ward – who are keen to put decision making power in your hands.


How to get involved

There are lots of different ways you can get involved and have your voice heard:

  1. Come along to events and share your ideas throughout the year.
  2. Get more involved, and volunteer to support this project - visit the more information tab on this page.
  3. Submit your proposal for the funding from 20 September 2025.
  4. Vote for your favourite projects on 6 December 2025.

To get involved, ask us any questions, or share ideas, email us at engagement@islington.gov.uk or phone/text 07811 043 478, Mon-Fri, 9am-5pm.


How can I get more involved and help with the running of the project?

Getting more involved in the running of the project is a great way to support your community, learn and develop valuable skills.

This could include some or all of these activities:

  • Telling your neighbours about the project and encouraging them to come to events and submit proposals
  • Listening to what your neighbours think and feeding back ideas
  • Planning and supporting community events related to this project

You can also receive training if you get more involved - this might include training on community organising, public speaking, and proposal writing. This is a flexible role to fit around your schedule.

If you have any questions at all about this, just get in touch!
