Concerns in planning, parking trees, rubbish and re-cycling collections and the like are raised with the Council. We represent residents’ views at various Steering Group Meetings and encourage as many of ECRA residents to attend and become involved. We also represent those interests to wider bodies such as Transport for London (TfL), English Partnership, road safety, Green Belt and Environmental Sustainability, Policing and Neighbourhood Watch / Police Ward Panel and we keep an eye on all of the current planning applications in the area, objecting or supporting where appropriate or necessary, including supporting Old Coulsdon Residents’ Association (OCRA), Coulsdon West Residents’ Association, Hartley & District Residents' Association (HADRA) and other Residents’ Association in the area if required or necessary. We are all volunteers and like to involve residents in Food Hub collections and litter picks. Since the Pandemic of 2020 we have helped set up and encouraged the setting up of street WhatsApp groups to help people keep in touch and ask or offer help to their neighbours. We deliver a quarterly newsletter, The Review, and happy to take articles or suggestions on board. We are always looking for road stewards to deliver and collect the £3 annual subs, though many pay by SO or direct to our bank account. We hold a yearly AGM to elect officers and are always looking for new members to bring fresh blood and new ideas to the table.

Four Commons and four Green Flag Awards for 2026!

We're delighted to announce that Farthing Downs, Riddlesdown, Kenley Common and Coulsdon Common have once again retained both the Green Flag Award and Green Heritage Site Accreditation.

The Green Flag Award is the international quality mark for parks and green spaces, recognising some of the best-managed sites out there. Retaining these awards reflects the year-round work that goes into caring for these special landscapes and nature reserves.

A huge thank you to our dedicated Rangers, fantastic volunteers, contractors and everyone who helps care for the Coulsdon Commons. These awards are something we can all be proud of!

Our Chair and East Surrey Transport Committee chair Charlie King had this response from Arriva about the terminating and poor bus service last week due to road works and other factors. Hopefully with them removed from Brighton Road and better management of the Coulsdon West ones we’ll see improvement this week. The Bus App still seems erratic though.
