Welcome to The Friends of Kennington Park
About the Friends
The Friends of Kennington Park is a voluntary organisation set up over 20 years ago to improve the park. We work with Lambeth Council, who run the park, to help keep the park in good shape and bring improvements and new facilities for our ever-increasing number of visitors.
We would love to make more friends! Would you like to join us? Click here to get involved and really make a difference.
Every penny helps...

Park Opening Hours: The park is open from dawn until dusk.
New cricket facilities in the park!
Surrey Cricket and the English Cricket Board working with Lambeth Council, SCCC and the ECB have installed two new nets.
So that means Kennington Park now has four cricket nets, as well as its brand new all-weather pitch!
Take part in the Kennington Park Chartist Trail!
To mark the 175th anniversary of the Monster Chartist Rally on Kennington Common in April 1848, we launched a Kennington Park Chartist Trail. Further details are available here on how to take part in the trail or to listen to the podcast from the comfort of your home.
Or just head down to the park and follow the signs which begin at the war memorial.
