Stay Connected with Your Local Council
Camden Council is making it easier than ever for residents to stay informed about what’s happening in their community. The council has just launched an official WhatsApp channel, providing a modern and convenient way for locals to receive important updates directly on their mobile devices.
This new digital initiative reflects Camden’s ongoing commitment to improving communication with residents. Whether you’re interested in cost-of-living support, family-friendly events, or health and wellbeing information, the WhatsApp channel brings council news straight to you.
How to Join Camden’s WhatsApp Channel
Getting started is simple and takes just a few moments:
First, visit the Camden Council news website and either scan the QR code provided or click on the direct link to the WhatsApp channel. Once the channel opens in WhatsApp, tap the ‘Follow channel’ button. Finally, don’t forget to enable notifications by clicking the bell icon in the top right corner-this ensures you won’t miss any important updates.
The entire process is designed to be user-friendly, making it accessible for residents of all ages and technical abilities.
What Updates Can You Expect?
Subscribers to the Camden WhatsApp channel will receive weekly updates covering a wide range of topics that matter most to local residents. Content includes information about cost-of-living support schemes, details of exciting free and low-cost family events taking place across the borough, health and wellbeing updates, and other important council news and service announcements.
Councillor Richard Olszewski, Leader of Camden Council, explained the reasoning behind the launch: “We are always trying to find better ways to connect with our communities. That’s why we’re launching a new WhatsApp channel to make it easier for residents to stay informed on important service updates and the latest news that matter most to them.”
The channel is also perfect for keeping your own WhatsApp groups up to date with what’s happening locally, helping to strengthen community connections throughout Camden.
Your Privacy is Protected
Camden Council has prioritised user privacy and security in designing this service. The WhatsApp channel operates with full confidentiality-subscribers cannot see each other’s names, profile pictures, or phone numbers. Importantly, Camden Council itself does not have access to subscriber information or phone numbers.
This secure setup means you can follow council updates with complete peace of mind, knowing your personal information remains private.
More Ways to Stay Informed
While the WhatsApp channel offers a convenient new option, Camden Council maintains an active presence across multiple platforms. Residents can also follow the council on Instagram, Facebook, X (formerly Twitter), LinkedIn for regular updates and community engagement.
Additionally, you can subscribe to Camden’s fortnightly e-newsletter, which provides comprehensive coverage of the latest news, upcoming events, and much more happening across the borough.
With so many ways to stay connected, Camden residents can choose the platforms that work best for their lifestyle and preferences.
