To all: thanks, and best wishes for 2010

To all those who care about Lordship Rec.

Lordship Rec Community Festival 2009This is an all-too-brief thank you to all those involved with the Lordship Rec Users Forum and to all the groups who care about our fantastic green space in the heart of Tottenham.

Over the last 12 months there has been an enormous amount of work and energy, commitment and enthusiasm, communication and co-operation, care and concern in developing and reviewing the proposals, plans, activities, meetings and consultation regarding the future of the Rec.

All of that individual and collective effort should be appreciated, whether its from residents and park users putting in their own time and resources, staff and officers working above and beyond the call of duty, or groups and organisations keeping their members informed and engaged throughout the numerous phases of this vital and in many ways unique community-led regeneration project.

Add your support for the plans for a small cafe in Downhills Park!

After 10 years of lobbying and discussions with the Council the Friends of Downhills Park have finally been successful in getting agreement for a small new cafe on the site of the old bowling club (demolished a couple of years back as unsafe). It will be smaller than the old clubhouse, but more compact and robust. The Friends will be helping to manage it and will be able to use it for park meetings.

Please support the application for planning permission – New planning Application: HGY/2009/2027: Downhills Park Cafe
