Cllr Aarien Areti
Aarien, a proud British Indian and long-standing resident of Holland Ward, serves as the Deputy Mayor — dedicated to representing individuals from all backgrounds and faiths within the borough.
He has led a community breakfast initiative at St. John’s and is a passionate advocate for wildlife conservation, for example the peacocks of Holland Park.
Cllr Johnny Thalassites
Johnny, a lifelong Royal Borough resident, is the Council’s Lead Member for Environment and Planning.
He introduced Britain’s first acoustic cameras on Holland Road, resulting in nearly 1,000 drivers of noisy vehicles receiving fines, and stopped the London Mayor from installing a segregated bike lane that would have involved felling mature trees on Holland Park Avenue.
Cllr Lucy Knight

Cllr Lucy Knight has lived in the borough for most of her life and is Chair of the borough’s Adult Social Care and Health Select Committee, supporting vulnerable residents and holding local services to account. She led sustained scrutiny of NHS leaders and a successful campaign to secure the reopening of 10 acute mental health beds at the Gordon Hospital, protecting vital local capacity at a time of real pressure on services.
