Consort Park and Dr Harold Moody Park
Improvements to the park include planting more trees and better access for individuals with disabilities.
Funding for park improvements
The first public consultation was held in early 2020, the second in spring 2021, and the third in summer 2022. A masterplan was created with the local community.
The Mayor of London has awarded the project £450,000 of Green and Resilience Spaces funding to deliver phase 1 of the masterplan and this includes:
- merging Consort Park and Dr Harold Moody Park, including creating a turning area for vehicles that will extend into Dr Harold Moody Park
- creating more parkland by removing part of the road and parking spaces
- additional seats and picnic bench
- installing new climbing equipment in the shape of trees
The plan will also be more beneficial to wildlife by:
- planting 17 new trees
- creating new sensory gardens and meadows
