The charity relies on the support and energy of our amazing volunteers to carry out its important work, conducting research, responding to planning applications which encroach on much loved green space, or working with others to celebrate London’s amazing hidden squares and gardens.
The charity is governed by a group of Trustees. The Board of Trustees meets between six and seven times a year. They have oversight of the charities finances and governance, setting strategy and supporting delivery of our shared vision.
