Lloyd  Park   

Welcome to Lloyd Park Would you like to support and improve your park? Or help run events and activities, so others can enjoy Lloyd Park as much as you do? The Friends of Lloyd Park is welcoming new members who want to get active in their park.
 
Lloyd and Aveling park has been a favourite place for Walthamstow residents since 1900 and was once home to William Morris. 
 
Here you will find information about the Friends of Lloyd Park and find out how you can have your say on the issues that affect the park. We also have our own dedicated website: www.friendsoflloydpark.org.uk
 
The Friends of Lloyd Park was formed in 2004 to represent park users in the ongoing management and development of Lloyd Park and Aveling Park. Some of the aims of membership are:


  • To find out the needs of users of all ages and put forward ideas for future development;
  • To highlight day to day problems and improve security;
  • To lobby councillors and ensure coordination between council departments and the various park users;
  • To referee between competing interests ensuring tax payers' money is well spent;
  • To keep up to date with each other about news and events by having a regular newsletter and regular public meetings where users can express their views.
  • To work with the council on the lottery bid to refurbish the park
