Since Trees For Cities entered into partnership with the London Borough of Tower Hamlets to manage this park, our landscaping team have undertaken some major renovation and made some impressive changes. A number of flower borders have been reinstated, there's a wildflower meadow, the pond has undergone renovation and replanting and, of course, a tree planting programme is well established. We are immensely proud to have been awarded our fourth Green Flag and a Silver Guilt in the London in Bloom competition.

Trees for Cities' training programme also operates from King Edward Memorial Park and our team has installed a poly-tunnel, classroom and other learning resources for the use of horticulture and arboriculture trainees. Come and see them for yourself; Ben, Richard, Ed, Kate or Paul are always out and about in the park if you have any questions.

This year we are planning to further enhance our biodiversity within the park by extending and developing a the native border along the eastern boundary of the park. We also hope to add woodland bulbs and perennials, install a loggery and develop planting schemes around the play areas to facilitate natural play. Through this work we will engage local schools and volunteer groups and educate Londoners about the value of green spaces. If you are a local school or community organisation and would like to get involved in this project please email Julia Morton or call us on 020 7820 4427.

The London Borough of Tower Hamlets and Goldman Sachs are kindly supporting this project.
