We are campaigning to have lights installed in Manor Park. Manor Park is near Sutton town centre, and hundreds of people walk through it everyday. However, there are regular occurrences of muggings and anti-social behaviour in the park, which is very close to two schools, and has a children's playground in it. During the winter months, the park becomes very dark, as there are no lights in it, often making it unsafe to walk through. We believe that having lights installed in the park will make it a much safer place for all those who use it.
I have been reading the stories you are all leaving and it honestly keeps me up at night thinking about how many people feel unsafe just walking home. I am putting your comments into a document right now to show the council that this is not just about a park but about the wellbeing of our entire community.
