Regenerating Moormead Pavilion for the Community
Twickenham, England, United Kingdom
Aim
Please help us to complete our planning application to regenerate Moormead Pavilion and enhance the park for the whole local community
A plea from us to you
Can you help us to regenerate Moormead Pavilion so that all of our local community can benefit?
We have already raised £6,500 via fantastic community support, but we need at least another £500 to pay for planning and environmental surveys so that we can get our project to the next level.
The current Pavilion
The Pavilion in Moormead Park has been neglected for many years and is currently unusable. The structure is unsafe and is beyond repair - a simple refurbishment is not an option.
Added to this, there are currently no toilet or café facilities in the park.
Moormead Community & Sports Pavilion is a registered charity working in partnership with the local community to transform the current eyesore into a new facility that will enhance our beautiful park and can be enjoyed by the whole community.
Our vision
Our new Pavilion will be innovative in design as well as improving the local environment.
We plan to incorporate a meadow roof to increase the habitats available to birds, bees, butterflies and insects.
We are currently consulting with the local community on the possibility of including a community garden. We are also asking local residents what they want the Pavillion to look like once it is built.
A Pavilion for all
Our new Pavilion will be open to all.
We will offer facilities, including a café and toilets, to extend use of the park to the whole community. We want to support existing park users as well as people who have previously been unable to use the park due to a disability or lack of facilities.
We will provide equipment storage for junior sports organisations, encouraging more outdoor activities for our young people. We will provide two boules lanes. We want to bring people together from all backgrounds, young and old, providing a Pavilion for all.
