February Meeting
Thursday February 14, 2019 @ 8:00 pm - 9:30 pm
Love your Common.
Thursday 14 February, 7.45pm for 8pm
An illustrated talk and discussion with Julia Bott and Richard Fox, Co-Chairs, The Friends of Wandsworth Common (FOWC).
Wandsworth Common is the largest green open space in the Society’s area. The Friends group, launched last May, now has almost 300 members. And the Common is of course enjoyed by many more – of all ages, for all sorts of recreation, walking, bird-watching, dog-walking, sports, cycling, relaxing, meditating……
What is the Friends’ vision for the Common? How will they achieve it, working with the Council and the Common’s management company, in tandem with the’MAC’ (Management Advisory Committee) and the Wandsworth Society?
2019 will be a significant year in the Common’s long history – the first public tender for a contractor to manage the Common who will then work to a new management and maintenance plan, now due out in March (following earlier public consultation). We expect a lively discussion about the Common’s future!
