Caroline Pidgeon AM joined Lib Dem Cllr for Newington Ward Southwark, Cllr Catherine Bowman and Simon Hughes MP with the Mayor of Lambeth and local residents, and the Friends of Kennington Park to remember those who died in the air raid shelter 70 years ago. Cllr Bowman planted a rose bush, along with others, to remember those who died there in the war.
“The Friends of Kennington Park have done an amazing job for the park. First by fundraising and erecting the wonderful memorial, and secondly by this wonderful new planting in the park. It was a very special ceremony and it was wonderful to talk to some of the local residents such as Fred Armer who still remember what happened to this day” commented Caroline Pidgeon AM.
