60 years of London boroughs

WVD-APR-2025-crest2

Redbridge is celebrating 60 years since its creation as a London borough.

On 1 April 1965, the London Government Act 1963 came into force, which reduced the number of local government districts from 86 to 32 London boroughs. Redbridge replaced Ilford Borough and Wanstead and Woodford Borough and also took in parts of Chigwell and Dagenham. Celebratory events will take place across the capital.
