Brockwell Park is not just a park, it’s a place where the community really come together. People are bonding over watching the swans nesting, feeding the ducks, and holding the politicians to account when it comes to funding of the park. Every day there are thousands of people enjoying a little bit of greenery in the middle of London, and I’m one of them.
