'Being at Osterley makes me smile' – Ali Basil aged 7
2007 has been the first year of London Voices, a family learning project which sees local families connecting to the National Trust property nearest to them.

The London Voices project is funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund and runs until October 2009.
It is taking place across London at Morden Hall Park in Merton, Ham House in Richmond, Osterley Park and House in Hounslow and Sutton House in Hackney.
In partnership with local schools, colleges and councils, creative projects and family events are held at each property, allowing families to explore and interpret their local special places.

Over the next two years, the results of this engagement will lead to fresh interpretive materials in each property which will appeal to families and have a cultural resonance for a broad range of people.
