We are the London Borough of Harrow. Rich in culture, heritage and an entrepreneurial hotspot, we pride ourselves as one of London’s most diverse boroughs.
We want Harrow to be a great place to live, work and visit, a place where people are proud to call home, feel safe and supported and where communities flourish.
Putting residents first is at the heart of everything we do. Within this lies a commitment to deliver services and experiences where the wellbeing and needs of our residents are met and are of a high standard.
With a workforce of more than 3000 employees, we want to be a council that staff are proud to work for, where everyone feels empowered to excel and is given the opportunity to thrive – all while serving our 250,000+ residents.
We want our staff to share the same level of ambition and drive to delivering our plans within the business and wider community. These are centred around three core priorities:
- A council that puts residents first
- A borough that is clean and safe
- A place where those in need are supported
We deliver our services and achieve our goals through our core values: to Be Courageous, to Do It Together and to Make It Happen. These are the main drivers to delivering our priorities and achieving our goals.
Our vision is to work together to continue to make a difference for Harrow, where people choose to do business, to live, work and visit.
Harrow Council is the 12th largest London borough and one of the most culturally diverse local authorities in the UK, making it a great place to live, work and visit with a range of cultures, religions and opinions that come together to produce high achieving schools and a close and friendly community. Located 10 miles from the city centre and just 13 minutes to Euston from Harrow & Wealdstone station there are great transport links via the Metropolitan Line, Watford DC Line and national rail service. It is easily accessible to the M1, M25 and A406.
