Description

Railway Fields Local Nature Reserve is located just off Green Lanes and is Haringey's most unique conservation site. At the heart of the Green Flag Award winning open space sits an educational resource centre providing conservation and wildlife activities for school children and training opportunities for adults.

The site has been managed and run on behalf of the council for many years by conservation charity TCV (The Conservation Volunteers) through partnership agreements. A few years ago the Council and TCV enter a new era with full, long term management responsibility given to TCV with the signing of a lease for the site.

Along with the management of Railway Fields TCV will provide conservation outreach work in many of the borough's open spaces, utilising its wide network of volunteers to creatively manage and enhance the biodiversity of Haringey's green spaces. Currently these volunteer sessions take place on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Haringey's network of Friends of Parks groups is an integral part of managing Haringey's green spaces. By supporting groups and offering training, their increased knowledge will empower them to lead on conservation improvements in their green spaces.

With the launch of the borough's Parks & Greenspace Strategy in 2023, there is now more of a focus to open up parks and volunteering opportunities to those priority groups, who may currently limit their access to parks.

This requirement will run from 1 September 2024 until 31 March 2025.
