Friends of Latchmere Recreation Ground

Friends of Latchmere Recreation Ground (FoLaR) aims to achieve:

• Community cohesion,

• well-being and

• environmental improvements

Working with the Council and our stakeholders, we are increasing biodiversity on the Rec through:

• planting trees

• creating a sensory garden

• Children's Nature Zone and

• a Wildlife Pond.

Other activities / facilities

• Kingston Little League has been providing excellent football opportunities for young people of all abilities for the past 40 years;

• we host a Junior Parkrun every week; and

We aim to increase the range of recreational activities providing something for everyone.
