What’s on this weekend?


Just a brief post to remind you of the Brockwell Park Volunteers Open Day on Saturday at Brockwell Hall from 2pm, and on Sunday the FoBP Tree Ceremony by the Clock Tower in the Park at 2pm, and finally the second of the current run of Bling Ya Bike -at Brixton Community Base 1 – 4pm.

Oh and there’s some kind of anniversary celebration going on in town so I hear…

Brockwell Park Volunteers Open Day – Saturday 2nd June


This year there’s more than ever going on in Brockwell Park, and more than ever for Park-lovers to get involved in.

Help is always needed and we’ve found there are some areas where we particularly need specialist help, or a few more pairs of hands. So, in collaboration with Friends of Brockwell Park we are holding a ‘Volunteers Open Day’, where committee members from both organisations will be available to talk about a host of volunteer opportunities.

2pm on Saturday the 2nd June, Brockwell Hall

You are welcome to just drop in on the day, but if you do get a chance it would be great if you could email and let us know you may be coming along so we can make sure we have enough tea and cake! If you can’t make it but would still like to get involved, just drop us a line.
