Do London Differently by London National Park City

London Assembly Environment Committee

Rangers Season 2 Episode 12

What does it take to transform a city? Sometimes it starts with something small, a compost system, a shared idea, a community walk to reimagine our grey spaces as green. That’s what was heard loud and clear at the recent London Assembly Environment Committee, where two members of the London National Park City team were invited to speak about the power of community-led action.

In a special session on the future of London’s parks and green spaces, Programme Manager Rochelle Shanthakumar and Executive Director Mark Cridge shared stories of grassroots transformation, local leadership, and the growing movement to green the parts of London that need it most.

Their message was clear: in the face of a climate and nature emergency, community-led action builds lasting nature connection and environmental resilience

The London Assembly Environment Committee is chaired by Léonie Cooper AM. We had questions from Committee members Thomas Turrell, Keith Prince AM, Bassam Mahfouz AM and  Zack Polanski AM
