Parks and Green Space Development

The Parks and Green Spaces team was created following the reorganisation of the parks team in 2022. The team continues to explore how to improve and develop Croydon’s parks and open spaces.

Grounds maintenance

The ground maintenance team are responsible for a wide variety of tasks across our green spaces within the borough, and more detailed information is available on the grounds maintenance web page.

The parks development team are also responsible for managing a wide variety of assets in our green spaces as well as activities that take place in them. The most common of these include:

• Playground and recreational area maintenance 
• Other built assets and infrastructure, such as pavilions and paths
• Park improvement projects, such as the Playground Programme
• Allotments and food growing
• Support of our ‘Friends of’ groups
• Nature and conservation work and partnerships
