Vauxhall Park Management Plan 2012 - 2017 Vauxhall Park Vauxhall Park Management Plan 2012 - 2017 Friends of Vauxhall Park Lambeth Parks & Greenspaces 4th Floor Blue Star House 234-244 Stockwell Road 020 7926 9000 [email protected] A Vision for Vauxhall Park “Our vision is that by 2016, Vauxhall Park should be a modern urban park of the highest quality, which preserves its historic character while providing a safe peaceful and varied environment for relaxation and recreation and enhancing the wellbeing of all sections of the community.“ 2 Vauxhall Park Management Plan 2012 - 2017 Foreword In Lambeth we have over 60 parks, commons, cemeteries and other open spaces, which enrich all of our lives and make Lambeth a better place to live, visit, and work. From major and local events, casual and competitive sports, reflection and contemplation, through to outdoor play spaces for children, we know that parks and open spaces are necessities in the modern world. Lambeth’s open spaces have experienced a renaissance in recent years, and we have seen our many active parks groups rise to become champions for green spaces, including exploring new models in how to manage and maintain them. We now have 12 Green Flag Award winning parks and cemeteries, the highest number we’ve ever had; and the latest Residents Survey revealed 76% of local people judged Lambeth’s parks and open spaces to be good or excellent. To ensure they meet our customer’s needs, Lambeth’s parks, cemeteries and open spaces are managed to Green Flag Award standard, using a rigorous set of criteria such as being welcoming, healthy, safe and secure, clean and well maintained, sustainable, respecting wildlife and heritage, community involvement, well marketed and good management. We want all of Lambeth’s parks, cemeteries and open spaces to be able to fly a coveted Green Flag, or aspire to this challenging but highly rewarding indicator of quality. In addition, through our new in-house grounds maintenance service, Lambeth Landscapes, we now have the capacity and flexibility to respond quickly and efficiently to ensure our open spaces remain at that standard throughout the year. We also have a Parks and Cemeteries Capital Investment Plan which sets out a framework to help everyone see what the priorities are for improving our parks and other open spaces. It provides the evidence and rationale for investing in green spaces and underpins the thinking behind future improvement. This represents the biggest investment we have ever made in our open spaces; our Friends groups and the wider community have shown us time and again the value of our open spaces, and this is a demonstration of our commitment and a response to their efforts. Yet while we have a vital role in delivering better open spaces, we cannot do it alone. This management plan is a story of partnerships where council and local people are working together to help shape and deliver standards and improvement in this particular site. The impact our residents have had on the design and implementation of improvements across each parks and open spaces cannot be understated. This plan shows what really matters to the many people that use this site. Working together, we hope this plan continues to act as the catalyst for stronger coordination to enhance its future and that of all of Lambeth’s parks and open spaces. Thank you for joining our efforts to protect and improve our valuable parks, cemeteries and open spaces. If you require any further information with regards to this management plan and the work we’re doing to make it a safe, welcoming and enjoyable space to be in, please contact Lambeth Landscapes on 020 7926 9000 or at [email protected].

The plan is informed by consultation with user groups, schools, site staff and officers. Its initial development was overseen by the Management Plan Steering Group, which comprised representatives of the Friends of Vauxhall Park (FOVP) and Lambeth Parks & Greenspaces. It was compiled by Barbara Moth, landscape consultant, who prepared it under the direction of the Steering Group using CABE Space and Green Flag Award guidance. It was completed in March 2006, and formally adopted in May of that year.

It has experienced rapid population growth, increasing by over 50,000 in the last 10 years up until 2015. There are five key town centers: Brixton, Clapham and Stockwell, North Lambeth (Waterloo, Vauxhall, Kennington), and Norwood and Streatham. Lambeth is the 5th most deprived Borough in London. One in five of the borough’s residents work in jobs that pay below the London Living Wage. This is reflected by the fact that nearly one in four (24%) young people live in families who receive tax credits. Major regeneration developments and improvements are underway for Waterloo and Vauxhall and the Nine Elms Regeneration project which will drive the transformation of these areas. Lambeth College has three main campuses in the borough, based in Clapham, Brixton and Vauxhall. Approximately a quarter of the student cohort in any given academic year are 16‐18 learners. In addition to this, there is also a significantly growing proportion of 16-18 learners on Apprenticeship programmes, moderate numbers on workplace‐training provision for employers and school link programmes which are offered to relatively smaller learner volumes.
