Petitioning in Lordship @ the playground
As part of ‘Love Haringey’s Parks’ week (see press release at the end, below) park users in Lordship Rec are invited to come and help with the ‘No To Cuts In Our Parks’ Petition. Meet at the children’s playground at 12 noon for petitioning around the area for half an hour. We will then go to the Downhills Park community cafe to meet up with park users there, and maybe join in their ‘Butterfly Count’…
