THISTLES!

 

Thistles are getting a grip on the wildlife area and urgently need to be removed so we’d really appreciate any help from park users.

 

If you would like to help getting rid of them, please come along from 11am on Tuesday Wednesday or Thursday any week and see Kasia who will provide you with gloves and some basic instructions.

 

She can be contacted on 07894 304520 or at kolszewska@lambeth.gov.uk.

 

HORTICULTURAL TASTER DAYS

 

If you are young and unemployed, Streetscape may be just the chance you are looking for.

 

They are a landscape gardening company that specialises in providing apprenticeships for 18-25 year olds who are long-term unemployed.

 

They invite everyone to come along to a taster day on 17th May 2012 at Myatt’s Fields Park to get a feel of what landscaping is all about and put themselves forward as a candidate for an apprenticeship starting in June 2012. See the leaflet

 

To book a place, contact James Gubb, info@streetscape.org.uk 07930 243570 with your name.

Lunch and reasonable travel expenses will be covered. You must be available also for interview on 22nd May, if successful at taster day.

 

CAFÉ OPENING TIMES

 

The café will be open from 10.30am to 5.30pm on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday throughout the summer.

 

MYATT’S FIELDS PARK FAIR 2ND JUNE

 

Local people and organisations are invited to book their stalls for Myatt’s Fields Park fair, which will be held from 1pm to 5pm on June 2nd 2012.

 

The fair will celebrate the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee with a Big Lunch and performance by a big band on the bandstand from 1pm to 3pm. There will then be dancing with a jazz band from 3pm to 5pm.

 

There will also be a small fairground and children’s entertainment, as well as a range of community stalls.

  
 
 

 We will be planting the nature conservation area in the autumn thanks to a grant from the Western Riverside Environmental Fund.

If you would like to help, look in September on the park noticeboards or the website for details of our full programme.

 

 
 

 The Nature Conservation (or Wildlife) Area of the Park fullfills an important  role in the borough-wide promotion of biodiversity and access to nature. The Wildlife Area page has been updated to explain its purpose and future development.
