This special project led by South London rapper Loyle Carner explores a unique collaboration between Timberland and Croydon council. Over the last nine months, Loyle Carner, Timberland and the local community of Thornton Heath, have developed Ambassador House Forecourt into a thriving community space, bringing life and greenery to an urban area. This short documentary explores the process and the people behind this brilliant project.
“Feels good to be home. I was lucky to grow up around green space, but in my area that’s not how it is for everyone,” said Loyle Carner. “I took a small but vital step in the right direction to bring more green space to the Croydon community. I’m still moved that Timberland would support such a grassroot initiative, and help us link up with London National Park City.”
