Bordered by Perivale, West Ealing, Brentford, Northfields, Park Royal, Acton, Gunnersbury and Pitshanger Village, this suburban town in south west London is a major metropolitan centre with a sizeable Polish population. It was once the home of Jamiroquai's Jay Kay, who reportedly attended St Benedict's School, and has since become most known for its film studios, where films such as The Ladykillers, Notting Hill, St Trinians and Star Wars Episode II were filmed. Ealing is a community made up of families and professionals working in central London and, as is the case with many London suburbs in the lead up to the 2012 olympics, the area is undergoing a degree of regeneration. Over the next year the town's roads will be revitalised and improvements will be made to local education, environment and housing.
