“Better Bankside has helped
a great deal in establishing
a safe, secure and clean
environment for me when
I set up my business here.
The rangers in particular
are an excellent deterrent
to troublemakers and can
bring in the cleaners when
we need them. That’s why we support Better Bankside.”

Trees
Trees are especially important in built up areas like Bankside. Extra tree coverage improves local environmental quality by reducing street temperatures in summer, reducing storm water run-off and flooding. They also help reduce noise levels along busy transport corridors and reduce the amount of man-made particulates in the air.
Better Bankside works closely with the London Borough of Southwark and other agencies to ensure that opportunities for planting trees in Bankside are maximised. Recent schemes include the tree planting in Sumner Buildings garden on Great Guildford Street. Better Bankside is also part of a consortium submitting a funding bid to the Mayor of London's Street Tree Programme. So watch this space for information of future tree planting activities across the area.
