Haringey - Borough of Parks

I was working yesterday in the north London borough of Haringey. This is a really interesting part of London with a great diversity of population. Anecdotally people say that there are over 100 languages in the the local community.

One thing that I did not realise before is that Haringey has some excellent public spaces and parks. Infact they are promoting them after a bit of a revamp. It is so good to see parks valued and looked after. They are our collective spaces. In a busy urban city they are our connection to the wider world of plants and nature.
