Construction update: Raynham Doorstep Green

Construction is now underway at Raynham Doorstep Green, marking an exciting step forward for the local community as part of Shaping Edmonton, our programme working together for a welcoming and thriving Edmonton.

This project is transforming the park into a cleaner, greener, and more welcoming space for everyone to enjoy. The improvements taking shape reflect what local residents, families, and young people told us matters most: a safer, healthier, and happier place to spend time outdoors.

Cllr Sabri Ozaydin, Cabinet Member for Environment and Placemaking, recently visited the site to see progress first-hand and meet the team delivering the work.

Once complete, Raynham Doorstep Green will offer new and upgraded play equipment, including a basket swing, play tree and multi-play unit, alongside accessible seating, picnic spaces, and outdoor exercise equipment that support health and wellbeing. Improved entrances, fencing and planting will make the park feel safer and greener, while a dedicated dog exercise area and new bins will help keep it cleaner for everyone.

Enfield Council has also been working closely with Raynham Primary School to explore ideas for an outdoor classroom, a place for young people to connect with nature and learn about the environment right on their doorstep.

Construction is being delivered in phases to keep the park open and accessible wherever possible.
