There's a competition going on to see which parks in London will get money for improvements under the "Help a London Park" scheme. One from Haringey - Lordship Recreation Ground - is up for the contest, and you can vote for it at www.london.gov.uk/parksvote/region/north/lordship.jsp

My colleague Cllr Dave Winskill (Lib Dem, Crouch End) puts it very well:

I have a real soft spot for Lordship Rec. Years ago, when I was student, I had a vacation job as a park keeper there and fell in love with the place. It is a real green oasis in the built up city and I hope everyone will take half a minute to vote. The local Friends Group has worked really hard and deserves the money to make the improvements.

So please go and vote!
