Ealing Council recently secured funding for a new jobs programme for young residents, while its committees have made decisions on licensing applications and planning proposals.

Ealing Council successfully secured grant funding in November 2026 for a new Jobs Guarantee Programme, aiming to help 562 young residents into employment. This Department for Work and Pensions initiative will provide six-month paid work opportunities for 18 to 24-year-olds claiming Universal Credit, running until March 2028. The council bid for the funding as part of the West London Alliance.

In October 2026, the Licensing Sub-Committee refused new premises licence applications for Mann Food & Wine and The Corner Shop in Southall, following representations from the Metropolitan Police and the Licensing Authority respectively. Earlier, in June 2026, the committee modified the licence for Sethi Food & Wine after illicit cigarettes were found.

The Planning Committee also made decisions in recent months. In October 2026, it considered a planning application for the redevelopment of Unit 3 Greenford Park. In August 2026, the committee granted planning permission for a mixed-use development at the former Post Office site on Mandeville Road, Northolt.
