Norwood Forum supports Plastic Mountain, a not-for-profit organisation that uses art to raise awareness of the plastic issue and to inspire action. Plastic Mountain is launching its public art installation on Friday, 30 June in West Norwood. The installation is a mound with plastic waste in its layers, which will erode and reveal the plastic. The sculpture will contrast the natural and the artificial, challenge the viewers to rethink their plastic habits, and show how waste can become wonder.

Active Lambeth have reported a delay in the reopening of the swimming pool. 

The council’s Trees team would welcome your help. Although we’ve just had a bit of welcome rain, more periods of hot, dry weather are to be expected over the summer. They are encouraging residents to help keep their streets’ trees watered. Full information is set out below.

Thames Water are due to repair the longstanding water leak outside B&Q. We reported this leak before the resurfacing works were undertaken in January 2023 but unfortunately the repair could not be prioritised by Thames Water due to all the other urgent winter repairs to broken water mains.
