London recovery
With the current virus being spread it is about time we have more open places where gym is more accessible and free for the public. More outdoor leisure centres need to be open to get everybody back into shape, The aim is for everyone to be proud of who they are and to feel comfortable with themselves. Old buildings that are under constructions should be for the youth and provide them with opportunities a better place for the youth can make a safer place to learn and grown. It is important to take care of our environment so I would personally suggest that we have trees planted and more areas where pets and families could attend to, with fountains and statues made out of wood this can also become a tourist attraction, The more attraction a place gets the more busier the place will be so then shops can be opened and kids aged 15+ can attend to get an apprenticeship. This will be good for the youth since they will have something to do and to keep them busy from mixing in with the wrong crowd. Better housing and more houses being built is a must because a HOME is where people start to learn all sorts of things, many people are facing homelessness so this is a high recommendation that old abandoned buildings are being used to help those who are seeking for a home. a happy community the less violence there will be.

Show full commentIt is absolutely the case that London, while being a relatively green city, still has far too few parks and outdoor centres for different activities. Parks are overcrowded and over-used as it is, and many areas have hardly any proper large parks with trees and lakes. Redevelopment is necessary, increasing housing units on current footprints, making space for more parks as well as somehow increasing really affordable housing. Maybe every new development should include both indoor and outdoor physical activity space.
