A proposal to create a UK Holocaust Memorial was originally suggested in 2014 with the Prime Minister in 2016 announcing the chosen site as Victoria Tower Gardens. In 2017 the proposal to build this monument and an underground Learning Centre was submitted to Westminster City Council.

Victoria Tower Gardens, a unique Grade II public park in central London, runs immediately along the Thames and provides the setting for the World Heritage Site around Westminster and the Houses of Parliament. London Gardens Trust, and other heritage groups, are concerned about the potential impact of inappropriate development on the park's existing design, monuments and use.

Helen Monger, Director of London Gardens Trust, takes us through the twists and turns of the Save Victoria Tower Gardens campaign, which led to a Judicial Review hearing in the High Court and may go to the Court of Appeal next.

This event is aimed at County Gardens Trust volunteers, but all those with an interest in the conservation of historic designed landscapes are welcome.
