Camden have proposed setting up a Community Management Committee (consisting of local people and Camden representatives) to run Waterlow Park and its buildings on behalf of the Waterlow Park Trust.
Discussions have now been ongoing for over a year and involve the management of the Park, the renting of the lodges and the Park Centre, and the future of Lauderdale House.

This is an opportunity for anyone interested to come and get an update from the Working Party and Camden officers.
Please come and have your say
