I don't know about Acton Green but an absolute fortune must have been spent on Southfield Rec recently - new benches, when the old ones were fine, new bins, a host of new expensive plants replacing healthy bushes, path replacements. I am going to do and FOI request before we are no longer allowed to do them to find out how much has been spent recently. Someone told me it was to win an award. How exactly has this award helped the community? Most of us care more about keeping day centres etc than whether a new bench is slightly shinier than the old one. Look forward to hearing about what this award will do for the community compared to the all the money spent on glossing up this very small patch of ground.
