Max Roach Park

About

Max Roach Park is a public park in Brixton in the London Borough of Lambeth, London, United Kingdom. It is named after the African-American jazz drummer Max Roach, who visited the park in 1986. The park includes a One O'Clock Club and children's playground, which have been under threat from funding cuts.

Demonstrations against cuts to youth services began in 2011, but Lambeth Council says it is trying to find a way to maintain some level of service despite budget cuts. There is a nature trail that extends to Rush Common.
