There are over 800 homes, one church, two schools, two nurseries, two playschools, two pubs, several small businesses, the main offices of Swindon Borough Council and only a short distance from Swindon Town Football Club. It creates a thriving cosmopolitan community with a good mix of young families and a relative high proportion of elderly.

It has both the advantages and disadvantages of its town centre location with the increasing problems of car parking and the growth of both bed sits and the development of every available bit of land for residential apartments.

The community council was first formed in 1982 and derives its name from the unique Queens Park a 12 acre green park with lake at the centre of the community area. An environmental beauty in a very urban landscape.

We meet each month (7pm) at the Civic Offices, Euclid Street, Swindon. New members are always made very welcome!

This website, kindly provided by Netintent.co.uk and the first community council website in Swindon, aims to give everyone an insight into our community and its history. For the resident it provides an access point to local issues, the community council and its work.
