Worcester Park Library's community pocket garden

1 story · 1 council

Worcester Park Library's community pocket garden is set to receive £5,000 for improvements.

In November 2025, the North Cheam, Stonecot and Worcester Park Local Committee allocated £5,000 for improvements to Worcester Park Library's community pocket garden. This funding, drawn from the Neighbourhood Fund, is intended to enhance soil quality, replace deteriorating edging, plant diverse perennials, install seating, and facilitate community events at the library.

The Neighbourhood Fund, which provides the funding, is sourced from developer contributions collected by Sutton Council through the Community Infrastructure Levy. The amount available each year depends on the levy collected in each area. No further discussions or decisions regarding the garden's development are currently scheduled at council meetings.
