Our Committee

Our Committee

The West Finchley Residents' Association is served by a small committee of volunteers elected at the Annual General Meeting or co-opted onto the Committee throughout the year. The Committee meets six to eight times each year to organise social events for residents, consider planning applications that affect the area, make representations to Barnet Council as necessary and generally act as a voice for residents in local matters.

The Committee elected at the Annual General Meeting on 2 February 2025 to serve for the next 12 months is:

• • • • Salim Sabri, Chair (Courthouse Gardens)

      • Marilyn Lee, Secretary (Courthouse Gardens)

      • Omer Dansky (Nethercourt Avenue)

      • Penny Igoe (Brent Way)

      • Shanaka Katuwawala (Nether Street)

      • Reema Patel (Courthouse Gardens)

      • Sheila Shannon (Brent Way)

      • Lisa Zaferakis (Nether Street)

The West Finchley Residents’ Association has grown because neighbours wish to work together concerning planning, improving the local environment and to bring people together, creating opportunities for local residents to meet one another in a social setting.

We work in collaboration with the local MP, the Ward Councillors, The Finchley Society and other civic groups. We are also working closely with the Metropolitan Police Safer Neighbourhood team regarding burglaries in the area.
