‘The Green House’ project is part of Portsmouth City Council’s ‘master plan’ to regenerate Victoria Park which will see it used as a new community space with various classes and events held within.
These will include environmental education, arts classes, markets, wellbeing classes like yoga and meditation, and various volunteer opportunities. It is hoped that the facility will be opened by the end of the year. It will have accessible toilets, a meeting space, a volunteering office and an outside sheltered area.
