This is not on #Streatham! Get voting!! We know Tooting is our beloved neighbour but we are Streatham and proud!

[Streatham Common @Rookery100]

If you are a #dog lover - you gotta vote #StreathamCommon. We got #Doggy Splash days that raise funding for the kids pool and give our #furbabies the time of their life.

[Streatham Common @Rookery100]

Vote #Streatham Common. We might not have a lido, but we have a Designated Local Nature Reserve #SW16

Come on #Streatham!!! RT and vote

Good morning, #Streatham. First job of the day? Vote for Streatham Common @Rookery100 in the @CupOfParks! We’re trailing our Tooting cousins with only 40% of the vote 😱... but there’s still time to turn it around! 💚🌳🌼🌱 #VoteStreatham

[World Cup of South London Parks @CupOfParks]

Well played on both sides, but Crystal Palace Park held the lead and are through to the final!

Who will they face in the battle for the cup?

[Railside Community Garden SW16 @RailsideGarden]

Oooh, #Streatham, this could get tense! After a narrow victory over the mighty Richmond Park, can @Rookery100 triumph in the local derby against our friendly neighbours @TootingCommon? 😬🤞#VoteStreatham in @CupOfParks!

[World Cup of South London Parks @CupOfParks]

The World Cup of South London Parks semi-finals kick off TOMORROW @ 9AM.

No expenses spared, high quality bracket of the story so far.....

Nice one, #Streatham! 💚🌳🌱🌼

[World Cup of South London Parks @CupOfParks]

Oh. My. Goodness. Could that have been any closer? 50/50 for most of the day, then a last minute push means that Streatham Common is through to the semi-finals by just 1% of the votes!

Rest up, recover, recharge - we kick off again on Monday 💥💥💥

[Streatham Common Co-operative @sccoopstreatham]

#Streatham. Time to show Richmond Park what real local passion is! Please vote for #StreathamCommon and prove how much our slice of open space means to us all! #RookeryGardens. @Rookery100 @knstreatham @streathamaction @Brockwell_Hall @LambethHortUK #FridayFeeling @rookerymarket

[Streatham Common @Rookery100]

@CupOfParks Vote #Streatham Common. Showing the beauty of the Local Nature Reserve [LNR] area that covers part of the upper common. Not bad given how much footfall there is in our urban area. #powerplants!

[Railside Community Garden SW16 @RailsideGarden]

Get voting, #Streatham! It’s a really close-run thing between our beautiful Streatham Common and the might of Richmond Park in the South London @CupOfParks... we may be the underdogs, but we can do this! 🌳🌼💚

[World Cup of South London Parks @CupOfParks]

Victory For Tooting! ✊

And now, the fight for the remaining place in the semi-finals....

[Railside Community Garden SW16 @RailsideGarden]

The #community #garden is blooming! 🌻🍓🥬 Excited to be working on plans to open up more widely to members & volunteers, as soon as we have things in place to keep us all COVID-safe. Watch this space for an update soon, #Streatham! 👀🙂

[Malcolm Clark @malcolmjclark.bsky.social @MalcolmClark77]

Congrats to residents of Wellfield, Gleneldon & Stanthorpe Roads for organising such a creative & welcoming #lockdown community event. A socially-distanced art trail, plus tour of @RailsideGarden. Lovely to see Streatham socially & artistically flourishing!

[Railside Community Garden SW16 @RailsideGarden]

Hey #Streatham! Come & visit the Neighbourhood Art Trail this Sunday, 21 June. Our #community #garden will be open as a cut through between Wellfield Rd/Stanthorpe Triangle. (And for socially distanced admiring of the fruit & veg, of course!) 🎨🌱🐝😊
