A place is made up of buildings, roads, parks and spaces, but the success of a place is more than just the sum of its parts.All the different elements of a place create a feeling, a sense, a &lsquo;vibe&rsquo;: if they work well together, these factors can make town centres feel vibrant, fun and welcoming at night.We want to explore what makes a place a positive experience at night, and how we can transport these learnings across the borough. &nbsp;<div class="cp-accordion"><input type="checkbox" id="chck1"> <label class="cp-accordion-header" for="chck1">What you said&nbsp;</label><div class="cp-accordion-content">A place for everyone<ul><li>You visit your town and local centres mostly for restaurants, pubs and shopping in the evenings (6pm &ndash; midnight)</li><li>Pubs are the main reason for visiting town and local centres in the late night (midnight - 6am)</li><li>You asked for more culture, especially music venues and&nbsp;outdoor performances</li><li>Businesses at night mostly cater to the younger, more affluent section of the community</li><li>Need to celebrate the magic of community and cultural spaces across the borough with more activities and events</li><li>Need more youth clubs, sports facilities and safe places where young people can spend time during the evening</li><li>Need a wider range of later opening businesses, not just surrounding alcohol, to activate streets for safety and help local economy prosper</li></ul><h4>Design our centres for the night</h4><ul><li>A lot of shop windows are dark or have shutters down at night and create dark patches</li><li>Disused spaces, empty units and railway arches should be used where possible</li><li>More creative and warm street lights wanted, with better colours</li></ul>Parks and open spaces<ul><li>Many people are scared of using parks at night &nbsp;</li><li>More outdoor spaces wanted for the community to use in the evenings</li><li>Businesses, residents and visitors have welcomed the pedestrianisation of streets in the borough</li><li>Businesses outside of pedestrianised zones felt left out and would like to be included in creative solutions for attracting footfall too&nbsp;</li><li>The river is underused and could connect better to the night time econom</li></ul></div></div>

Introduction to the First draft of the Night Time Strategy

Putney high street

Introduction: First draft night time strategy  

<div class="cp-accordion"><input type="checkbox" id="chck1" style="transition: all 0s ease 0s;"> <label class="cp-accordion-header" for="chck1">Read the Councillor&#39;s Foreword&nbsp;</label><div class="cp-accordion-content">I am delighted to present this unique, one-of-a kind document outlining a vision to improve the night time experience for Wandsworth residents, workers, and visitors. This is the beginning of the dialogue.The significance of this study cannot be overstated. This strategy, in particular advocates for the many people who work in or are affected by the night time economy and who are frequently overlooked in important decision making.The night time experience is determined by who you are - what you look like, your gender, sexual orientation, mental and physical health, ethnic origin, previous experiences, and if you can afford a taxi home or to work.For many, the night time is filled with fear, and those who feel the most alienated are frequently the ones who are least heard.This strategy places a special focus on the groups that have the most difficulty getting what they need at night, such as low-income workers, young people, and women.We want businesses and high streets to thrive, but we also want people to feel comfortable and involved so they can enjoy what our neighbourhoods and town centres have to offer after dark. To do so, we must reconsider the night, redesign how our neighbourhoods should look and feel, and what kind of uses and services are available after 6 p.m.The Council recently signed up to the Women&#39;s Night Safety Charter and is conducting ongoing conversations with particularly vulnerable groups such as those living in more deprived areas of the borough and the LGBTQI+ community. This demonstrates our commitment to improving safety.This paper aims to kick-start a new emphasis on the night time, making it more accessible to all, and ensuring that everyone who works, studies or enjoys the night feels safe and heard.<ul type="disc"><li>Councillor Kemi Akinola</li></ul><img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/commonplace-digital-limited/image/upload/c_scale,w_301/v1677604346/Kemi_Headshot_ry5wkc.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dii" data-uw-rm-ima="ai-w"></div></div>This Draft Night Time Strategy for Wandsworth sets out the Borough&rsquo;s strategic vision for the evening and night time which will help shape, influence and link with wider strategies and policies across the Council. It provides guidance for the Council, partner organisations and businesses to ensure the night time economy in the borough is encouraged to grow, whilst ensuring it is sustainable, reflects the needs of local residents, businesses and workers and is inclusive to all.&nbsp;The Strategy supports wider Council priorities to create a more just and fairer borough with its focus on improving the night time experience for all, taking into account the residents that often feel the negative impacts of the night time economy too. It recognises the importance of safe neighbourhoods at night as well as during the day, the foundation for a successful night time economy. Listening to the experience of night time workers and other participants has brought fresh insight into the preparation of this strategy. &nbsp;Providing a voice for those involved in the night time economy is an important principle for taking its recommendations forward.&nbsp;The focus of the Strategy is not just on leisure, hospitality and the entertainment industries, but also night workers such as those in health care, warehouse logistics and deliveries, as well as people leaving their offices in the evening or late night. The night time economy is significant, but the Covid-19 Pandemic has brought to light the fragility of our night time industries as well as the safety of Londoners, especially women, low income, disabled, young and vulnerable people, moving around the city at night.Following the tragic death of Sarah Everard and Sabina Nessa in 2021, a spotlight has been cast on the borough around women&rsquo;s safety and the general safety of Londoners at night. Wandsworth is the safest inner London borough statistically, but with 52% of the borough&rsquo;s population being women (the majority falling into the 25-39 age bracket); an increasing night time workforce of which women are an increasing part; and for our high streets and town centres to recover successfully following the Covid-19 Pandemic, it is critical that we plan for an inclusive and safe environment for all our residents, visitors and workers.The purpose of this document is to celebrate the night and draw together practical recommendations for improving the night time to meet the needs of everyone. We know the night time economy can have negative impacts on residents too, and through this Strategy hope to balance the needs of all those who use the night. The Strategy promotes cross-departmental working internally within the Council, extensive consultation with businesses and the public, and engagement with external stakeholders such as the Metropolitan Police, Transport for London and the Greater London Authority (GLA).&nbsp;Some of the recommendations in the Strategy will require funding, and where appropriate the Council will redirect existing resources or explore options for external or partnership funding. The Strategy provides a platform for developing future projects and an evidence base for funding applications. &nbsp;<h2 style="color:#4996D1;">Our approach</h2>The Night Time Strategy project is led by the High Streets and Local Growth Team in the Economic Development Office at Wandsworth Council.

We need to reimagine a night time that is inclusive for all, regardless of gender, age, race, disability or income. We want to reclaim and celebrate the night, with consideration to the new issues that behold us &ndash; concern around safety, economic challenges such as the rise in cost of living, and a continued wariness around crowded indoor places following the Covid-19 Pandemic. &nbsp;&nbsp;A common misconception around the Night Time Strategy is that it aims to increase late night opening hours to encourage more venues for drinking. &nbsp;Our vision is more holistic and inclusive, recognising the wide range of activities that constitute the Night Time economy and seeking to create a more balanced night time, that provides services that appeal to a diverse range of users &ndash; from community hubs for residents and young people, late night supermarkets for night workers, to safer transport hubs for all. &nbsp;The Council commits to the below four principles to guide the improvement of the night:<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/commonplace-digital-limited/image/upload/v1678206678/projects/62b5951eb0b399cfc00c43b3/ni9ozmputejsuli6cg19.png" class="fr-fic fr-fil fr-dii" data-uw-rm-ima="ai-w" style="width: 60px;color:#4996D1;">Voice &ndash; listening to those who participate in or are affected by the night time environment so their voices are heard and reflected in our work <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/commonplace-digital-limited/image/upload/v1678206579/projects/62b5951eb0b399cfc00c43b3/ycezeb8dmzqly7nwatrt.png" class="fr-fic fr-fil fr-dii" data-uw-rm-ima="ai-w" style="width: 60px;">Collaboration&nbsp;&ndash; working better across agencies, organisations and communities to create a better night time experience for all <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/commonplace-digital-limited/image/upload/v1678206769/projects/62b5951eb0b399cfc00c43b3/rcwbgnpklwacjatkzh7a.png" class="fr-fic fr-fil fr-dii" data-uw-rm-ima="ai-w" style="width: 60px;">Knowledge&nbsp;&ndash; providing guidance, training and information that informs a better understanding of the night time economy and safety <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/commonplace-digital-limited/image/upload/v1678206828/projects/62b5951eb0b399cfc00c43b3/ezkmjlvjxyknpghvb6yr.png" class="fr-fic fr-fil fr-dii" data-uw-rm-ima="ai-w" style="width: 60px;">Investment&nbsp;&ndash; specific interventions to create positive impacts in particular locations or piloting new ideas

The success of the night time economy &ndash; and therefore the borough&rsquo;s economy as a whole &ndash; depends on the continued and increased use of the borough at night. People are at the heart of what makes the night time vibrant and we want the experience of our town centres and the borough as a whole to feel safe, engaging, welcoming and inclusive to all so everyone is encouraged to use it.&nbsp;As part of this, we need to understand who uses the night time and why, and how we can draw more people out at night. This includes night workers, young and old people, and a special focus on the safety of women and minority groups.<div class="cp-accordion"><input type="checkbox" id="chck1"> <label class="cp-accordion-header" for="chck1">What You Said&nbsp;</label><div class="cp-accordion-content">Safety and activity<ul><li>Many residents do not visit Wandsworth&rsquo;s town and local centres often at night, and a large amount never do</li><li>Fewer people visit any of the town centres in the late night (midnight &ndash; 6am) compared to the evening (6pm &ndash; midnight)</li><li>The main reasons for not using the night time are feeling unsafe, poor lighting and a lack of activities&nbsp;</li><li>Aggressive drunken behaviour and street harassment by men is an issue</li><li>Many people with protected characteristics such as women and the LGBTQI+ community do not feel safe in the borough at night</li><li>Women&rsquo;s perception of night time is still affected by the tragic death of Sarah Everard&nbsp;</li><li>More activity (places open later), CCTV, more police, male education, rough sleeper support and better lighting is needed to improve safety at night</li><li>People do not know what is happening in their town centres and require better communication</li></ul>Young people<ul><li>Many young people do not feel safe travelling around the borough at night alone and they have nowhere to get help if phone batteries die</li><li>Young people want and need more places to go to feel more connected to their communities, and where their parents can feel they are safe</li><li>Violence amongst young people at night often starts with a disagreement in school &nbsp;</li><li>The youth community feels unsupported by the police and there is distrust between young people and the police &nbsp;</li></ul>Night workers<ul><li>Night workers are anxious about going home at night, especially down quiet, dark roads.

One of the key aspects of this Strategy is to acknowledge that the night time economy is changing, and has been for some time.&nbsp;Research undertaken by the GLA found that 1.6 million Londoners work in the night time in a range of industries, including healthcare and deliveries (not just hospitality), which is over a third of the capital&rsquo;s workforce. 65% of Londoners are active at night, working, socialising, running personal errands, attending cultural activities and playing sport, requiring a range of uses and services around this.&nbsp;Wandsworth is estimated to have a night time workforce of 112,000. &nbsp;Based on estimates for the size of London&rsquo;s Night Time Economy, this suggests that of the borough is worth at least &pound;1bn per annum (around 10% of the borough&rsquo;s Gross Value Added).&nbsp;People of all ages now want a wider variety of uses, affordability, and more than just bars and clubs to attract them to the borough&rsquo;s high streets.&nbsp;As our high streets evolve post Covid-19 Pandemic, our aspiration is to offer diversity in the high street experience during the night time, whilst supporting our existing businesses that make the night time what it is.<div class="cp-accordion"><input type="checkbox" id="chck1"> <label class="cp-accordion-header" for="chck1">What You Said&nbsp;</label><div class="cp-accordion-content">More uses<ul><li>You want more culture, community facilities, music venues and restaurants in the night&nbsp;time</li><li>Some people want more late night pubs in areas where this is lacking&nbsp;</li><li>Live events and licensing difficult as they come with a lot of challenges but need to support London&rsquo;s music scene and young up-and-coming artists.

Getting around Wandsworth at night in a safe, accessible and straightforward way is essential to creating an active and welcoming night time experience for all.&nbsp;Though the reinstatement of the night tube has been welcomed by many, much of the borough is not served by the underground and a special focus is needed on transport at night, where more issues can arise compared to the daytime.&nbsp;Between night workers, residents and visitors alike, the attractiveness and affordability of the different modes of transport, from walking to public transport and taxis, influence our choices of travel. Wandsworth Council is committed to improving active travel through its new Walking and Cycling Strategy (2022-2030), which strives to allow all residents, of all ages and abilities to either walk or cycle to their destinations in the borough without experiencing danger.&nbsp;Transport, including walking and cycling, requires ongoing review to ensure residents, workers and visitors feel they can explore the borough at night whether alone or in groups.A good quality transport system is also necessary to support businesses at night and meet climate change goals.<div class="cp-accordion"><input type="checkbox" id="chck1"> <label class="cp-accordion-header" for="chck1">What You Said&nbsp;</label><div class="cp-accordion-content">Walking and safety<ul><li>Most people either walk or travel by bus at night in Wandsworth</li><li>You want better walking facilities in the night time with more wayfinding and signage</li><li>Underpasses, side roads and quiet areas feel unsafe</li><li>Back alleyways are unlit and attract crime</li><li>Better lighting is needed across Town and Local Centres</li><li>Transport hubs and interchanges between bus stops and stations can feel unsafe at night</li><li>Women shift workers feel unsafe at night at bus stops and walking home</li><li>LGBTQI+ community feel unsafe after dark, especially in quiet areas</li><li>Some businesses do not allow their younger staff to work at night</li><li>Some youth clubs walk their young people home</li></ul>Cycling<ul><li>Bike stands are often located in dark and uninviting places and there is a fear of crime when using the stands, as well as bikes being stolen&nbsp;</li><li>Need more Santander cycle docks</li></ul>Public transport<ul><li>Public transport needs to be safer, especially for those with protected characteristics such as young people, women and the LGBTQI+ community</li><li>Need to improve accessibility across the borough as it is hard to reach some parts by public transport</li><li>Concerns around the loss of some bus routes and the frequency of night busses&nbsp; <span class="data-uw-rm-autofix-hide" data-uw-rm-ignore="" style="color: #ffffff;background: #000000;clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);clip-path: inset(50%);height: 1px;width: 1px;margin: -1px;overflow: hidden;padding: 0;position: absolute;">Empty heading</li></ul><h4 id="isPasted">Taxis / private transport</h4><ul><li>Not everyone can afford taxis, artists for example performing at venues often cannot afford taxis to go home at night</li><li>Some businesses have budgets to pay for women and vulnerable staff to travel home at night by taxi, but not all can afford this</li><li>Free parking may not serve sustainability interests but helps with safety at night for some people</li></ul></div></div>
