This year the ASPRA is working on the following projects:
Neighbourhood Watch
It is our aim to get as many roads as possible in our Association registered with the Croydon Borough Neighbourhood Watch.
Presently only nine out of the 33 streets are part of the scheme:
Ashling Road
Bingham Road (west)
Birch Tree Way
Claremont Road
Fryston Avenue
Glenthorne Avenue
Sefton Road
Shirley Park Road
Whitethorn Gardens

Local Conservation Area Status
We have been told that house numbers 10-
While the above is good news, the ASPRA still needs volunteers to help research and present a proposal to Croydon Council to designate the whole neighbourhood a Local Conservation Area. LCA status will make it more difficult for developers to destroy the integrity of our neighbourhood. Anyone interested in helping us with this major project please "Contact Us" to let us know.
The Association has now been added to the consultee database for the Borough, which will ensure that we receive notification of consultations for planning documents and will take part in workshops.
