During the last Friend’s meeting in September, Studio Cherry presented a vision as to what a building would look like if it was a community cafe/hub for all park users. This idea was brought up at our first public consultation. The location for such a building would be beside the Children’s playground just beyond the pergola shelter. You can find detailed plans here.
The next steps for delivery of such a building in the park would be to begin raising funds so that such a building can be built. At the same time in order to get sign off from Lambeth it will be necessary to have a business plan. Within this the Friends of Hillside Gardens Park would detail the overheads of running such a building. If you would like to join the planning group, please contact Tom tom.stanbury@talk21.com.
