Monitoring air quality in Elmhurst Gardens playground

Local mum Lydia Fraser-Ward has teamed up with the South Woodford Society to apply for an air quality node from Breathe London to monitor levels of air pollution in the children’s playground in Elmhurst Gardens.

“Only 10 nodes are available for all of London this year, so it’s likely to be highly competitive, but a strong application was submitted, including a 20-minute film with interviews and endorsements from local councillors and parents,” said Lydia.

A decision on the application is expected in January.
