Conservative councillor Eileen Glover spoke up for residents living in Avery Hill at the latest Greenwich Council meeting over the issue of parking. Since Greenwich University introduced parking charges to students; residents and businesses in the surrounding Avery Hill and Eltham Heights area have found parking at times almost impossible.
Local Conservative campaigner Adam Thomas recently visited the Avery Hill Nursery with Eltham's parliamentary candidate David Gold. The nursery is based on the Avery Hill Estate and provides early years childcare for parents studying at Greenwich University, allowing young mums to study higher education courses. The nursery provides an impressive set of services including a Forest School to help the children learn about nature and the environment, and is considered one of the best performing childcare facilities in the borough.
