First look at south london's huge new village opening in tooting Springfield Village will officially open to the public on July 5 as part of national celebrations to mark 75 years of the NHS

Inside the new remodelled hospital building

The new Trinity building opened to patients last December

By Charlotte Lillywhite Local Democracy Reporter Pictures have revealed what a new village in south London will look like after it was dubbed the ‘largest urban development’ to open in the capital since the Olympic Games in 2012.

Springfield Village, in Tooting, will officially open to the public on July 5 as part of national celebrations to mark 75 years of the NHS, after a hospital site was revamped, with hundreds of homes set to be built in the next three years. The £150million revamp of Springfield University Hospital, with two new mental health facilities, is at the centre of the scheme from South West London and St George’s Mental Health NHS Trust. The Trinity building opened to patients in December 2022, with

Shaftesbury set to open later this year. The village will also include a new 32-acre park, shops, cafés, a care home, land for a school and more than 800 homes by 2026. The park is opening to the public in two stages and will include a pavilion café, amphitheatre, youth shelter, play areas and a sensory garden. The biggest part of the park will open this summer, with the remaining area scheduled to open in autumn next year. Some new homes have already been built in the village, with a total of 839 approved and works planned up to 2026. Plans for 449 more homes to be built on remaining plots of land are being considered by Wandsworth Council and would take the total up to 1,288 if approved. The trust said the village was the “largest urban development in London since the 2012 Olympics and

The biggest part of the 32-acre park at Springfield Village will open this summer has been designed in collaboration with staff, patients and local people over a number of years to break down barriers and open up the Springfield site for the benefit of the community”. The overall scheme is being led by developer STEP with the trust and other partners including Barratt London, London Square, Sir Robert McAlpine, Lawrence Baker and City & Country. It forms part of the trust’s aim to transform mental health services in south west London, including the planned revamp of Tolworth Hospital in Kingston and Barnes Hospital in Richmond. Leaders from six national mental health charities visited Springfield Village on May 16 to mark Mental Health Awareness Week 2023. Vanessa Ford, chief executive of the trust, said: “We are extremely proud of everything we have achieved with our partners in creating Springfield

Village. Bringing our services closer to the people we serve symbolises just how far we have come as a society in changing attitudes and breaking the enduring stigma around mental illness. “That is in large part thanks to the dedicated campaigning and advocacy work of these fantastic organisations over a number of years. We still have a way to go and it is so important we work across organisational and societal boundaries to build on this momentum. “Springfield is just the start of our journey to transform local mental health services. We are excited to bring forward further investments this year, as we enhance and expand community mental health services and redevelop Barnes and Tolworth Hospitals.” Mark Winstanley, chief executive of charity Rethink Mental Illness,

added: “People who need mental health inpatient treatment have traditionally been isolated from the local community in outdated hospitals which aren’t designed to meet their needs. Springfield Village has been built with the input of people experiencing severe mental illness and has the potential to break the mould. “It’s also really encouraging to see plans to integrate the hospital into the local community, which will help efforts to break down stigma that still has a tangible impact on people’s lives. “We welcome the investment and careful consideration that has gone into ensuring people feel as comfortable and safe as possible during their treatment, and we await feedback from people who use this service as it could provide a blueprint for other plans in development across the country.”

By Wilf MacDonnell FORMER MILLWALL and current Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze has earned his �irst England callup.

Eze was rewarded for his sensational form towards the end of the season for Palace, particularly since the return of Roy Hodgson to Selhurst Park. Eze scored ten goals and got four assists last season. Eze is one of three Palace players to be called up to the squad, alongside goalkeeper Sam Johnstone and defender Marc Guéhi. England, under former Palace captain Gareth Southgate, face Malta and North Macedonia next month in the Euro 2024 quali�iers. “We've liked him for a long time,”

Charlton kids get pro deals By Wilf MacDonnell THREE CHARLTON academy products signed their �irst professional deals last week.

Southgate said. “He was very unfortunate just before the [2020] Euros. We were going to call him into a prep camp and he got an injury. “He has �inished the season very strongly, he can play in a couple of positions across that front line. He has high quality and bursts of speed to go past players with those dribbling skills.” Eze has particularly �lourished since 75-year-old Hodgson took over from the sacked Patrick Vieira. Eze has recently been linked with a move to one of the Premier League’s top six. “I’m not really too bothered about that. I’m just focusing on the present,” Eze said. “I want to continue enjoying it and contributing to the team as much as I can. I’m improving every game.”

“I feel like I’ve got the freedom to play, to do my thing. I’m just happy to be enjoying my football.” “I found it dif�icult at times [when he wasn’t playing under Vieira]. As a team we were going through a tough period so that’s natural to lack con�idence. “Since Roy has come in, it’s given me the freedom to express myself. I’ve obviously played for him before, so I understand exactly what he wants. That’s helped.” After he was released by Millwall, Eze was picked up by the Hoops, and he has spoken about how the west London club revived his career. “They put that belief back in myself that I had when I was young, at Arsenal,” Eze said. “Once I had that in the under-23s, I felt unstoppable. “It wasn’t until I got to QPR that I got

that click with those guys and I started to unlock new levels I didn’t know I had in terms of my work rate, running stats, stuff like that.” Eze was under the watch of the Hoops’ technical director Chris Ramsey. “He is an outstanding person. He was very engaging, willing to learn,” Ramsey said. “Most �lair players now tend to think that �lair is enough, but myself, Andy [Impey] and Paul [Hall] were able to connect with him on different levels at different times and put our individual input into trying to get him to unlock what he had. “We looked at somebody who was really desperate to be given some patience, which is what you really need in player development, and also just a bit of care, though I’m not saying he didn’t get that at his previous places.”

Chibike Okechukwu, Ollie Holden and Toby Bower have all made the step-up from academy scholar to full-time professionals. The news comes after the Addicks’ youth side won a third consecutive Professional Development League 2 South title. Forward Okechukwu, who has been with the club since under-10 level, told Charlton’s media: “I’m delighted, honestly. I’ve been at Charlton a long time so it means a lot to me. It’s been a tough year for me personally, I had a massive injury. “I can’t put the determination into words, every day I’m in the gym, putting 110 per cent in sweating and working to make sure that when I’m back on the pitch, �irst off I’m as �it as anyone.” Defender Holden has been at the club since under-13 level and scored in this season’s under18s’ national play-off �inal against Barnsley. Upon signing his �irst professional contract, Holden said: “It’s a very proud moment for me and my family. As a team we’ve been on a lot of cup runs, we went to the Milk Cup in Ireland and we went all the way through to the �inal. Holden outlined his ambitions, saying he wants “to become a main starter for the under-21s next year and hopefully try and push my way into the �irst team”. Bower is also a full-back who has been with the Charlton academy since the age of nine. He captained the victorious under-18 side in the 2022-23 campaign. Bower said: “It’s something I’ve dreamed of, I’m now following in the footsteps of people that I have looked up to. “It’s something that the club has always managed to do, bringing players into the �irst team. Whether it’s having a career here or at different clubs. There’s a few in my team as well, Zach Mitchell, Nathan [Asiimwe], Dan Kanu. They've all had chances with the �irst team and I’m looking to kick on and do the same thing.”

put the visitors 1-0 up in the 31st minute, but Palace drew level when Will Hughes headed in Michael Olise’s brilliant cross in the 66th minute. The draw meant that Palace �inished eleventh and above Chelsea for the �irst time in Premier League history. Hodgson was asked about his future after the game. “No, I haven’t spoken to Steve [Parish] about anything,” Hodgson said. “As far as I’m concerned, I had a contract to do a job here and I’ve done that. I shall now go back

to where I was before the phone call and then I shall see what the future holds for me. “This spell, of course, has been the more glamorous but the �irst spell was probably the more important because in those four years the club could have gone down at any time and we had to work very, very hard to make sure that didn’t happen.” The 75 year-old returned to Crystal Palace in March after the sacking of Patrick Vieira with Palace just three points above

the relegation zone. “I must also say that it’s not been my work alone,” Hodgson said. “Patrick Vieira deserves credit as well because he started this season off and he won games and got points for the team as well. Between the two of us, I think we’ve put the club once again in the position it wants to be in. “I think the future for the team and the club looks very bright. “Eleventh place for Palace is more than acceptable. At the moment, that would be where we would de�initely want to be, at

least. “We could always hope that we could have a better �inish in some of the seasons to come, and get beyond that and into the top half of the table. “I don’t think it’s a big ask that when you’re �inishing around this position in the league, you could perhaps go a bit higher than that, and certainly with a good season I hope we would. “But I think the season should be regarded as a very satisfying one for the club.”

Roy coy on future after guiding Palace to safety By Wilf MacDonnell

ROY HODGSON has remained tightlipped over whether Palace's 1-1 draw against Nottingham Forest last weekend was his last game involved in professional football.
