Let's create ten new green spaces for Londoners!

Pressure is growing to build on London's green spaces....one great way to protect our them is to give them official status as a public park.  So we've identified threated sites, like the historic Lea Bridge waterworks in Waltham Forest, and we will be campaigning to turn them into parks and nature reserves.

We can't do this without your help - so please DONATE NOW and help create ten new parks for future generations of Londoners to enjoy!

Save Lea Marshes and CPRE London have joined forces to campaign to transform the historic filter beds on Lea Bridge Road, once owned by Thames Water, into a place for wild swimming.

Our recent polling shows that millenials and Londoners are most likely to vote with the countryside and green spaces in mind.   As the General Election approaches politicians of all parties would do well to heed these findings.

Three in four Londoners say that protecting green spaces, including the Green Belt, is important to them - more than in any other region.  

Following the publication of the Inspectors Report on the draft London Plan we have written formally to the Mayor of London asking him to stand firm on his commitment to protect the Green Belt and Metropolitan Open Land.

GREEN BELT AT RISK! October eBulletin

The latest issue of our Green London eBulletin contains news of the Inspectors' Report on the draft London Plan along with other essential planning and environmental news from across the capital.    

We have written to the Mayor of London urging him to reject recommendations by the Panel of Inspectors which would seriously weaken protection of London's precious Green Belt and Metropolitan Open Land.

CPRE London today (Wednesday) is calling for an independent review of aviation with a view to implementing a phased closure programme of London City Airport to unlock the development potential of this seriously blighted part of London's former Docklands.  This comes as consultation on controversial and widely opposed proposals for expansion of the airport draws to a close on Friday 18 October.

Plans to build over 125 hectares of Green Belt are unecessary and unjustified, and will cause appalling congestion and pollution, say campaigners.
