A big win for residents this week, after two Labour Cllrs broke ranks and helped us defeat a massive Barratt London overdevelopment at the South West London and St George's NHS Springfield site.
For now, at least, five-storey blocks wonβt loom over #SpringfieldPark . Hereβs why:
Happy #MyTwitterAnniversary
My long suffering followers will see that I've become somewhat #SpringfieldPark obsessed over the 2yrs but thats thanks to the content of hidden things & unanswered questions π₯ Alder Hey π have created. Wonder if Alder Hey will buy me an anniversary card?
Can't get down to see the new #SpringfieldPark play area for yourself? No problem! We've created this walk through video so that you have a look around and check out the fantastic new equipment online π What do you think of it?
Opening a gate makes such a difference! Now we can pass through historic #DaffodilKingdom & new community garden in #AboyneEstate , take a short walk up a leafy avenue in #StGeorgesGrove & enter into #SpringfieldPark ! Letβs hope #StreathamCemetery & #Fishponds are next!
1.Saddened & maddened to hear the planting in the new playground area of #Springfieldpark is wilfully being pulled out by teenagers, assumedly bad rather than bored. Ridiculous having to keep replanting. Evidence of some ECOhedge whips snapped & pulled out earlier this pmπ ππ€
1. Gave the flower beds in #SpringfieldPark a little tidy up this morning as theyβve been untouched since last Oct. Glad to see lots of plants came through winter, with a promise of more floral vistas to come & help for our #pollinators π #volunteers #CommunityGardening #RHSBloom
lovely to see lots of new faces today at our mthly community litter pick #springfieldpark - pity so much rubbish collected in just 1 hr esp in the new play area. no chocolate this mth healthy fruit instead
Ironic the board π₯ Alder Hey π are called a 'Trust' Board, yet how can we trust those individuals who have continually let our community down? They promised to build the new hospital on #SpringfieldPark & return us a World Class Park. New hospital opened 2015 & we're still waiting?
