Area has a rich pool of well educated and skilled workers who mainly commute out of area to work (68% per this document). This needs to be addressed by looking for ways to attract high value job creating businesses. The airport development will help here. Can we initiate ideas to make the district attractive for London City based businesses to relocate with affordable, high quality premises and good transport links -- (this worked well along Victoria Ave in 60's but what went wrong???)

Need to engage newly retired highly skilled and professional workers (eg from Ford Motor Co and City) in worthwhile voluntary work but this needs to be organised in a professonal way- currently very peicemeal and disjointed.
