Who are we?
Today we’re a charity, supported by a group of trustees comprising of local people and organisations who support Archbishop’s Park as a valuable environmental resource for everyone. Although we continue to promote the park’s regeneration, the focus is about health and well-being – getting outside, staying healthy and feeling part of a community.
We promote inclusion through two gardening activities which run most Fridays: firstly our project for young people with barriers to learning and our second activity which supports members of the community, volunteers and adults with mental health issues.
Set up in 2000, we’ve achieved a lot over the last 20 years or so and remain one of London’s prized Green Flag award-winning parks.
We are self-funding and finance our activities from a variety of grants, donations and income from our honey and homemade jams and chutneys. Our current funders are the London Borough of Lambeth and the GLA.
