Lambethans Society: closing down arrangements

The Annual General Meeting on 30 November agreed that the Lambethans Society would close.  Alternative arrangements are set out below.

Summer Walks series: Several societies and friends groups provide the walks, with shared publicity organised by the Lambeth Local History Forum.  A printed list of walks will be available at Lambeth libraries or from the amenity societies listed below by April.

Local anger about proposed Brockwell Park festivals

Proposals for two three-day festivals in Brockwell Park this year with up to 40,000 people a day, with protracted set-up and build down times have generated an unprecedented wave of protest from local communities and park groups.

Field Day and LoveBox have both submitted plans for three day ticketed festivals in the park, Field Day in early June, LoveBox in July and back-to-back with the Lambeth Country Show. This would add up to eight major event days in the park at a time when the park is at its busiest and families who do not go away during the summer holidays need it most.

Barnardo’s Supported Lodgings programme

Barnado's are looking for people that have a spare room and time to support a young person to become hosts – and provide lodgings for a vulnerable care leaver at a crucial time in their life. We know that a supportive and stable home environment can make a huge difference to their chances of moving on successfully and we offer training, ongoing support and weekly payments to our hosts.

Your local policing team meetings

Your local Policing Teams will be holding regular Community Contact Sessions as set out below. This is a great opportunity to speak to your local police officers to voice any concerns or issues.
