The Isleworth Society
Originally known as the Friends of Old Isleworth, today the Isleworth Society embraces a wider brief than the riverside area. It remains non-political and non-sectarian; its main objectives being to:

- Promote high standards of architecture in or affecting the area

- Educate the public in the geography, history and natural history and architecture of the area

- Secure the preservation, protection, development and improvement of features
of historic or public interest

The TIS Comitee meets every six weeks to discuss matters of general interest and any changes/or improvements that might have been proposed in the area, with a view to protecting and enhancing Isleworth.

The Planning Sub-Committee monitors planning application and takes action where necessary, by representations to the local council and/or developers, and attending relevant meetings and enquiries.

Newsletters are distributed twice a year to all members. These contain items of local interest, reports of events, achievements and forthcoming activities.

Over the years community projects have been many and varied, including:-

- Taking a lead in the listing of Isleworth Public Hall. This building has played a pivotal part in community life since it was built in 1863 with public funds

- Regular planting of Isleworth's two horse troughs

- Painting the railings outside All Saints Church

- Litter picking days and graffiti clean ups

- Planting trees on Isleworth Green and by the Glossop Memorial

- Obtaining a grant to replace the children's play area fencing in Silverhall Park
