Crowdfunding campaign to create natural play area in Wanstead Park

A crowdfunding campaign is hoping to raise £20,000 to create a natural playground in Wanstead Park.

The play area – to be located on former scrubland behind the Temple – has been planned in consultation with local groups and will be constructed from natural materials found in Epping Forest. Volunteers and arborists from the City of London will be building most of the play structures, but funds are needed to purchase specialist equipment. Fundraising begins early next year (minimum pledge £2).
