Allied with this are the clusters of technology, media and telecoms businesses. Taken together, these put us in a unique position in the UK’s business landscape.
The Lyric and Bush theatres, LAMDA, Bush Hall, Riverside Studios, the Hammersmith Apollo… and not forgetting the new Shepherd’s Bush Comedy Festival – no wonder our events calendar makes the borough a year-round destination for those who love a bit of drama in their lives.
Hammersmith & Fulham is incredibly well connected with its 14 tube stations. We are the nearest major business centre to Heathrow, and in easy reach of the West End and the City. And when the planned HS2 ‘super-hub’ at Old Oak Common is completed, the borough will have even faster connections to the rest of the UK.
