Do you live in Tooting?  Would you like to help South West London and St George's Mental Health NHS Trust (SWLSTG) design a new public park for local residents?

SWLSTG is calling on all local people to help design a new park at the Trust’s Springfield University Hospital site in Tooting.

Following on from the previous community consultation in 2012, the Trust is now seeking help to shape the future of Springfield Park, in preparation for a detailed park strategy submission to Wandsworth Council in September.

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to open up the historic site and create a new 32 acre park for the whole community.

The Trust will be holding a series of public exhibitions in July, which will give an opportunity to view and comment on the designs at an early stage. 

At the public exhibitions you can:

• View the different options for the park;
• Have an opportunity to make comments and ask questions
• Identify issues and topics that should be addressed.

Members of the development team will be on hand to answer any questions on the proposals. The development team will review all comments and feedback and, where possible, will incorporate this feedback into the final park strategy.

The public exhibitions are taking place on:

• Thursday 9th July 2015 from 2pm to 7pm
• Friday 10th July 2015 from 8am to 1pm
• Saturday 11th July 2015 from 10am to 2pm

At the restaurant in the Newton Building, Entrance 6, Building 4 (Newton Building), Springfield University Hospital, 61 Glenburnie Road, SW17 7DJ

If you would like further information on the consultation, please contact swlmh.consultation@nhs.net or call 020 7871 3565.

More information is available on the Trust’s website, and you can follow them on Twitter. 

All the information presented at the public exhibitions will be available to view online here. Residents can also fill in an online survey to comment on the proposals.
