Wandsworth Council
Wandsworth has one of the highest number of council-owned parks and open spaces in inner London. And we believe that these are huge assets to the people of Wandsworth – not just the showcase parks, but the smaller and less obvious green spaces too, which can be a haven for peace and tranquillity.
This summer, as part of Love Parks, we encouraged everyone to get out and enjoy their favourite park. By using and celebrating your local park, you are helping us to protect it for future generations.
