A community group with the community’s best interests at heart, formed by local people in partnership with Lydiard staff to bid for the running and management of Lydiard House and Park. The trust will, over the coming weeks, set out its vision for the estate, embracing the community’s affection for this much-loved public park.Swindon’s Lydiard House and Park was registered as an Asset of Community Value by the Lydiard Fields Action Group in 2014. The Council’s decision to offer a management lease in excess of 25 years created an opportunity for community groups to submit their own bids. The Love Lydiard Trust was formed for this purpose and was the only qualifying organisation to apply to trigger the moratorium on behalf of the community. This was accepted by the Council on August 9. The group now has until December 22 2016 to provide a detailed proposition, building on the excellent proposal already submitted by the staff team.The Love Lydiard Trust is the only community group supported by the Akers family, who gifted Lydiard House and handed over the Park to the community in 1943.
