The High Court has quashed Tottenham Hotspur’s plans to develop part of #WhitewebbsPark following a successful judicial review! Congratulations to Guardians of Whitewebbs and others for their tireless work on this case. London’s #parks are vital for people and #nature!
In a week when temperatures in the capital have soared again, it’s clear that London's Green Belt and other green spaces are needed more than ever to cool our city and mitigate the impacts of climate change. #GreenBelt #Environment #Nature
Very concerning that a vital #GreenSpace for local residents is under threat from development in one of London’s most green space deficient boroughs. www.cprelondon.org.uk/news/residen...

Thanks to your generosity and @biggive.bsky.social we raised an incredible £20,070 for our green spaces work through #EarthRaise – the most we’ve ever raised from a Big Give fundraising appeal. This funding will help protect and enhance London’s #GreenSpaces for generations to come! 💚
Our @biggive.bsky.social #EarthRaise campaign ends TOMORROW at 12PM. After that, donations will no longer be doubled, and your gift will be worth half as much to London's green spaces. Been meaning to give? Please don’t wait any longer! Double your donation now: bit.ly/4dYRn5y
Thanks to you, we’ve already raised £8,920 for London’s green spaces. A huge thank you to everyone who's doubled their donation this week! But we're still short of our £25,000 goal. Will you help us get there by next Wednesday? Donate now bit.ly/4dYRn5y @biggive.bsky.social #EarthRaise
We’re proud to have helped communities save 5 London green spaces from development this year. Donate to us today and your gift will be doubled by @biggive.bsky.social, so we can fight to protect even more spaces. Double your donation now -> bit.ly/4dYRn5y #EarthRaise #DoubletheDifference
The #EarthRaise campaign is now LIVE! For 1 week only, we can make double the difference for London’s green spaces. Until 29 April, every donation to us will be kindly matched £1 for £1 by @BigGive. Together, let’s make double the difference. Donate now bit.ly/4dYRn5y #EarthDay
