Kensington Town Hall
Kensington and Chelsea Council is reviewing its property estate, including Kensington Town Hall, to address a £120 million funding gap.
Kensington and Chelsea Council's Leadership Team reviewed an Asset Strategy in October 2026, proposing to reduce its property holdings, including Kensington Town Hall, which is the council's main corporate and civic hub. This plan responds to an anticipated £120 million funding gap, aiming to streamline the operational estate for financial stability.
The Asset Strategy for 2026-2030 advocates for a more efficient and better-utilised estate to ensure continued service delivery. This rationalisation of the council's property is part of a comprehensive plan to address substantial financial challenges over the coming years.
