Message from the Mayor by Mayor Josh Morgan mayor@london.ca 519-661-4920

Looking ahead in 2026, Wortley can expect continued investments in pedestrian safety, community spaces and neighbourhood infrastructure, always with an eye on supporting the Village’s unique character. I look forward to joining many of you at the upcoming winter events. Mayor Josh Morgan

Happy New Year, Wortley! As we step into 2026, I want to reflect on the wonderful spirit you brought to 2025. From a fantastic Christmas in the Village to year-round volunteerism and neighbourly care, Wortley contin- ues to be a shining example of what community can look like in

London. Thank you for your energy, creativity and kindness. Winter hasn’t wasted any time this year, with early cold snaps and frequent snowfall, and I know many of you have felt it on morning trips or during strolls through the Village. City crews are out daily, keeping your narrow, walkable streets safe and making sure sidewalks and cycling routes remain usable through the winter season. I also want to emphasize the importance of our warming centres and winter response programs. As temperatures dip, these services are essential for residents without stable shelter, providing warmth, meals and community support. Thank you to the many who continue to champion compassion and care for all Londoners.
