The Big Clean-Up: Childs Hill Walk

JOIN US: 24 March 2019, from 12 midday to 2pm

It’s only 100 yards or so, but you can see a lot on a short stroll down Childs Hill Walk, from All Saints Church to Cricklewood Lane.

Not just the memorial garden, then the school, to the left. There’s also a somewhat tatty and depleted planting area, on the right, with a grubby wall, and thick laurel bushes.

Plus, a fair bit of rubbish. Not a vast amount, but enough to disappoint.

And some of us think the walk could be vastly improved with relatively small effort.

A group of residents, community groups, the church, representatives of the school, and both Conservative and Labour councillors, have come up with a variety of ideas to make Childs Hill Walk something really special.

This includes a variety of ideas for fresh planting and art installations, commemorating the history of this part of north London.

But before we get to that, we need to clean it up.

So we’ve set a date: 24 March 2019, from 12 midday to 2pm.

Please come along. We’ve got litter pickers and other equipment, and we’re putting up a display in the church to share our ideas.

We’d love to know what you think. Not only of the ideas we’ve already come up with – but any additional, better ideas you might want to add.

See you soon!
