SUMMARY:Hope for the future: why caring for green infrastructure is vital for thriving people and places 
DESCRIPTION:Public spaces that are well cared for\, with mature trees and new planting\, create a much-needed sense of hope\, a feeling that someone cares and that this place will get better as time goes by. Cared-for parks\, green spaces and trees add to people’s sense of wellbeing – and generate significant economic value. Why\, then\, is the UK so bad at maintaining places and\, in particular\, green infrastructure? How can the UK do better? What new ways are there to pay for the upkeep of green infrastructure? What tools and resources can help get it right?  \n\n\n\nOrganised by the TCPA on behalf of the Green Infrastructure Partnership.   \n\n\n\nSupported by NatureScot\, Greenbelt and the Lady Margaret Paterson Osborn Trust.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFirst session: 9.30-11.00am: Does anybody care about this place?  \n\n\n\nChair: Julia Thrift\, Director of Healthier Place-making\, TCPA  \n\n\n\nKeynote speech: Lord Heseltine – a personal reflection on the importance of stewardship  \n\n\n\n\nFrancesca Osowska OBE\, Chief Executive Officer\, NatureScot: ‘Sharing the journey of a nature-rich future for all‘\n\n\n\nProf Catharine Ward Thompson\, Edinburgh College of Art: Title ‘Why should we care about green space and health?’\n\n\n\n\nSecond session: 11.30am-1.00pm: Paying for maintenance: can investing in stewardship lead to long-term value generation?   \n\n\n\nChair: Celia Davis\, Policy and Project Manager\, TCPA  \n\n\n\n\nRobin Waddell\, Development Director\, Greenbelt: ‘Green Infrastructure Stewardship and Sustainable Income Steams.’\n\n\n\nCharlotte Glazier\, Programme Manager\, Islington Council and Ludo Pittie\, Director\, WSP: ‘Can private finance fund public green space?

SUMMARY:PAL: Community-led Green Spaces Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Planning Aid for London and Ramboll are delighted to present a workshop dedicated to fostering community-led green spaces in London. \n\n\n\nUrban green spaces provide communities: with access to nature and places to grow food\, provide spaces for wellbeing and connection\, and support climate action and biodiversity. \n\n\n\nThis interactive and engaging event aims to empower individuals and local communities to transform urban areas into sustainable and vibrant spaces for communities to enjoy. By leveraging Ramboll’s expertise in urban design\, landscape architecture\, and sustainability\, participants will gain valuable insights and practical knowledge to create thriving green spaces that promote community engagement\, biodiversity\, and environmental well-being. \n\n\n\nWe have limited spaces available\, so please register your interest by emailing Abi at abigail.grove-white@tcpa.org.uk\, if you would like to attend the workshop.  \n\n\n\nPlease click here to be taken to the PAL community green space map for London.
