Green Spaces & the Natural Environment Workshop

by

Charlton Neighbourhood Forum are pleased to invite local residents to the above workshop, on Saturday 14th October, from 11 am to 1 pm. The venue is St Richard’s Church Centre, on the corner of Sundorne Rd/Swallowfield Rd, Charlton, London SE7 7NR. The hall is an 8 mins walk from Charlton rail station and the bus stops for the 380 and 486.

The workshop is open to residents who live, work, run a business or study in Charlton. If you are not already a member, please join the Forum on the day. This workshop is a great opportunity for residents to share their views on their local environment and our existing green spaces, as well as discuss your priorities and what policies that you would want to become part of the Charlton Neighbourhood Plan.

The workshop will last 2 hours, and will be a mix of short presentations, table discussions and deciding what people feel are important ideas and actions. It will be an opportunity think about and discuss our local area and it’s green spaces and to share ideas and listen to those of other residents.

All the materials maps, pens, post-it notes and flipcharts will be available at the meeting plus well-earned refreshments. You can also meet up with some local Friends group members who are attending to offer their local knowledge about the green spaces in Charlton.

We hope you can make some time to attend the workshop to find out more about the Green Spaces of Charlton and help shape developments in the future.

The bridge in Maryon Park in Charlton where we will be walking.

This Sunday, June11th, members of the Charlton Forum will be meeting in Charlton Park before heading off on a gentle stroll down to the Thames, following the Southeast London Green Chain and finishing at Thames-Side Studios for their open studios exhibition.  The Green Chain Walk will take us through Charlton Park, Maryon Wilson Park, Maryon Park and Moore Park. On the way committee members will be available to answer any Neighbourhood Plan related questions, as well as hear your ideas on what you would like to see included in any such plan.

Everyone is welcome, and, weather permitting (thunderstorms are predicted!), we’ll be meeting outside the Old Cottage Coffee Shop in Charlton Park at 10.45, ready to head off at 11.00. All we ask you to bring are your ideas and enthusiasm for Charlton and the changes – or otherwise – you’d like to see in the future.
