Come along to a community event to discuss Vauxhall's parks - everyone is welcome

Lambeth Council's Greening Vauxhall team, the Friends of Lambeth Walk Open Space and Marie Curie Cancer Care would like to invite you to a community event at Lambeth Walk Open Space, Fitzalan Street, SE11 on Saturday 29 March 2003, from 12pm onwards. The nearest tube is Kennington and buses 3, 59 and 159 pass nearby. A light lunch and refreshments will be provided free of charge. We would like to hear your views on how we can improve the parks covered by the Greening Vauxhall project, which are: Kennington Park, Lambeth Walk Open Space, Lambeth High Street Recreational Ground, Pedlar's Park, Vauxhall Park and Spring Gardens.

We'd also like to tell you more about the first 'Doorstep Green' project in North Lambeth, which is providing funds to involve the local community in how to improve Lambeth Walk Open Space. You'll have the opportunity to discuss your views, hopes and ideas and offer suggestions for improving this green space.

Marie Curie Cancer Care will also be there promoting their 'Fields of Hope' daffodil gardens, one of which was planted in the Lambeth Walk Open Space in December 2002. If you have any ideas where the next 'Field of Hope' should be planted in the Greening Vauxhall area, do come along and let us know. It's going to be a fun day for the kids as well from 12pm, with a children's art workshop led by artist Phil Coy at 'Roots & Shoots', Walnut Tree Walk, SE11. The workshop is for children aged from 6 - 14 and aims to get them involved in an enjoyable way in developing new artwork and ideas for improving our parks. They'll also be free face painting and balloon modelling on Lambeth Walk Open Space.

Sure Start Kennington - parents event on Saturday 29 March
