Vauxhall Gardens Estate in Lambeth (Phase 2)
Community Engagement
The Well London community engagement process took place in Vauxhall Gardens Estate in July 2012. This included a mapping exercise, doorstep interviews, two Community Café events for residents only, and a Community Action Workshop (CAW - see doc below) that brought together residents and other stakeholders. From the data collected a Well London Vauxhall Gardens Estate Programme Initiation Document (PID) or plan (see doc below) was drawn up and agreed by funders in September 2012.
