As a local resident of Camberwell, London, and a regular visitor to Brunswick Park, I am deeply aware of the need for a public drinking water fountain in this vibrant community space. Brunswick Park, nestled in the heart of Camberwell, SE5, is a cherished area brimming with activity. From engaging matches on the tennis courts, joyful activities in the children's playground, to  games on the basketball courts, this park is a haven for families, sports enthusiasts, and dog walkers alike.

Despite being a hub of activity and a beloved green space for locals, there is an absence of a basic but essential facility - a public drinking water fountain.

This lack of hydration options poses a challenge for children, families, and sports players, particularly during warm summer months where dehydration can become a real concern.

Installing a drinking fountain in Brunswick Park is not just about providing a convenient amenity; it is about fostering a healthier and more hospitable environment for all park-goers. Access to free, clean drinking water would ensure that visitors of all ages can stay refreshed and hydrated during their time in the park, encouraging longer stays and more frequent visits.

We urge Southwark Council to consider this much-needed development. By adding a drinking water fountain, the council would be taking a significant step towards enhancing the park's facilities for the benefit of the entire community.

Please sign this petition to support the installation of a public drinking water fountain at Brunswick Park, ensuring a more accessible and enjoyable experience for everyone who visits this valued communal space. Your support can make a tangible difference.
