Our Story
The Arlington Association - is a group of dedicated volunteers who manage the planting and upkeep of flowers and shrubs in the square.
We work with the council, police and other organisations to help conserve and improve the appearance and safety of our neighbourhood.
The money we raise goes to local causes where the donations make a real difference; the rest we put towards greening the neighbourhood.

Arlington Association biodiversity plan
The Arlington Association's biodiversity plan sets out how we are working to support nature in our area. Volunteers already maintain and improve Arlington Square, local pocket parks and tree pits.
These well-loved green sanctuaries for people also support birds, bees, moths
and hoverflies. But the natural world is struggling and we want to do more.
The plan outlines our approach - and how you can get involved.
