2M Group

The 2M Group is an all-party alliance of local authorities concerned about the environmental impact of Heathrow operations on their communities.

The group, which took its name from the 2 million residents of the original 12 authorities, now represents a combined population of 5 million people and was successful in 2010 in overturning plans for a third runway at the airport.

Members are keen to reduce night flights, preserve the relief provided to residents by runway alternation and strengthen noise and air quality controls in the areas around the airport. The group is not anti-Heathrow but works together to improve the environment and protect the quality of life for local people.

The membership is made up of the London Boroughs of:

Brent | Camden | Ealing | Greenwich | Hammersmith and Fulham | Haringey | Harrow | Hillingdon | Hounslow | Islington | Kensington and Chelsea | Kingston | Lambeth | Lewisham | Merton | Richmond | Southwark | Sutton | Wandsworth

and the boroughs of:

Reading | Slough | Windsor and Maidenhead | Wycombe  | South Bucks
