Vote for King George's Park

The Mayor for London is running a competition for awarding grants of up to £400,000 to improve parks throughout the capital.

King George's Park, where I won my first football medal when I was a pupil at Allfarthing School, is one of the parks in the running. As the blurb on the competition website says:

"King George's Park is a long, thin open space, but most of its facilities are at the northern end. A grant would support work with the local community to develop a masterplan for the park, a new playground at southern end, improved wildlife habitat by the river Wandle, a riverside footpath; a new community café and an all-weather games pitch."

Anyone can vote for King George's Park - it's really straightforward.

Incidentally the photo shown here is of my 6-aside football team (I'm the the one on the bottom right if it isn't obvious! My team mates are [clockwise] Ansell, Zubair, Richard, Richard & Matthew).
