People in Hackney are being asked to nominate their favourite park for a national competition.

Fifteen of Hackney’s parks and green spaces are in the running for the Green Flag People’s Choice Award, for which 1,424 parks and green spaces have been put forward.

Last year 13 green spaces in the borough were recognised in the competition as amongst the best in the country, and this year Hoxton Square and St John’s Churchyard Gardens join the list.

Voting closes at midnight on Sunday October 14, go to www.greenflagaward.co.uk to pick your favourite.
