Our Vision for Nunhead Reservoir

Short-Term Goals: Pre-booking to ensure a safe number of attendees

  • Quarterly Open Days: We'd like to unlock the gates of Nunhead Reservoir four times a year, once each quarter, to share its beauty with the community.

    • Spring Day: Burst into bloom with nature walks and bird watching.

    • Summer Celebration: Enjoy long summer days with picnics and outdoor games.

    • Autumn Colours: Capture the golden hues with guided walks and photography.

    • Winter Stars: Wrap up warm for stargazing and educational talks.

  • Wellbeing Days: We want to boost the community's health with:

    • Activities like yoga, painting, and kite flying to relax and unwind.

    • Astronomy classes to marvel at the night sky

  • Site Clean-Up: Prior to each open day, let’s tidy up together. A community clean-up will:

    • Remove hazards like glass and litter, making the Reservoir safer for everyone.

    • Strengthen the bond between Thames Water, local residents, and the broader community.


Long-Term Goals:

  • Securing the Reservoir: Ensuring that our water source remains protected, clean, and secure.

  • Regular Public Access: Our aim is to make Nunhead Reservoir as welcoming as Greenwich Park, with set opening times for daily enjoyment.

Solutions:

  • Collaborative Management: Establishing a local committee to manage the Reservoir's access and upkeep, in partnership with Thames Water.

  • Infrastructure Investment: Adding amenities like bins and benches for comfort and cleanliness.

  • Ongoing Dialogue: Maintaining communication with authorities to align on how best to manage public access while keeping the Reservoir secure.

Join us in transforming Nunhead Reservoir from a fenced-off area to a thriving hub of community life and natural beauty.

Together, we can make it a space that's safe, clean, and open for all to enjoy.
