Green George Downing

Residents would like to see more greenery on the estate; replanting areas that have died back and better care and maintenance of existing landscaping.

There’s been conversation around resident led gardening projects and a community forest garden is planned as part of the Boiler House development. Some residents have also began researching the possibility of a tree planting campaign.

How can we encourage improvements? What suggestions could be made to Southern Housing? What kind of funding is available in this area? What kind of experience do people on the estate have that could be beneficial?

You can collaborate on this campaign via the WhatsApp group Green George Downing 🌿 email residents@georgedowning.estate or catch ups at our residents meetings
