Everyone is welcome to the park, to discover its history, wildlife, trees and plants, to exercise and play. Myatt’s Fields Park should be an 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 Welcome to Myatt’s Fields Park” 2 Myatt’s Fields Park Management Plan 2016 - 2021 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 Cooperative Park Management Proposals Information
    Lambeth Cooperative Park Management Proposals Information Booklet 1 Foreword Lambeth has 60 wonderful parks and green spaces which for many without private gardens, provide a haven that contributes to people’s enjoyment of living, working, and visiting Lambeth. This is shown with the number of weddings, picnics, and range of outdoor events held throughout the year. The different co mmunities coming together to play sports, enjoy a spot of gardening, or relax. We can see that their natural environment and surroundings can act as rehabilitative safe havens for people to escape from the hustle and bustle of inner city living and feel a part of nature. However we also know that we are living in a changing environment. One in which we must find £178million of savings by 2016, representing 45% of the Council’s controllable budget. One where public services should aim to grow and achieve more for the wider community. And although challenging, instead of accepting that we should do less with what we have available; we want to take this opportunity to be more inventive and reinvigorate our parks service. We have a great foundation already looking at our many active and enthusiastic park users, friends, and community groups, and the first step for us is to find out from them what is important in your parks service. History shows us how community involvement in park management and services can be hugely successful and the sense of local ownership and pride it can engender and we seek to support this work. Together, we could build upon the progress and achievements made through the years of Lottery Investment, Green Flag Awards, and new gardening projects and begin to shape, design, and deliver a more ambitious vision for our park services that gives you more control and say.

  • Parks User Survey
    RESPONSE TO THE 2020 PARKS USER SURVEY March 2021 Lambeth Council 1 Parks: User Satisfaction Survey 2020 Response to Comments Because of Covid-19 restrictions it was not felt appropriate to carry out face-to-face surveys for 2020. Instead the survey was put online and publicised as widely as possible. The survey ran between 24 August and 2 November 2020, with 1,120 surveys completed, covering 45 parks and open spaces. This represents well over half of all the sites Lambeth manages. The survey report is available online at: https://www.lambeth.gov.uk/leisure-parks-and-libraries/parks. Overall, 90% of respondents said that they were satisfied with Lambeth’s parks. Feedback from users constitutes vital information to help ensure we are providing a good quality service and meeting the needs of residents. This report provides a response to the user feedback given, with a focus on the answers given to the question of what we can do better. The first section addresses the core areas which users were asked to assess and details what action, if any, we are planning to take for those sites where more than 10 per cent of respondents gave a grading of Poor or Very Poor. To avoid skewed data from low sample sizes we have excluded sites with less than 10 responses. The second section lists all of the additional comments provided through the survey, by park; as well as a response which attempts to address the main themes. S106 refers to money secured from developers after planning permission is granted, as a contribution to local infrastructure 2 Horticulture: quality of trees, plants and grass (89% satisfaction) 68% of respondents (1,106 responses) classed horticulture as Excellent or Good, with 21% satisfied, 9% considering it to be Poor and 3% classing it as Very Poor.
