Thank you Asda Foundation for your Grassroots Grant contribution to the 12 Church Grove community garden! We will post pictures of the greenery we plant thanks to you in the coming months. 🌳🌳🌳🐞🐝🦋

The past and future of London! It was inspiring to hear from community groups monitoring and tackling #airpollution with Breathe London and Bloomberg Philanthropies at the London Mithraeum. We can't wait to install our monitor at Church Grove...

A big year for RUSS in 2024... to start with:
🌾 They're fundraising for a new Riverside Community Garden with Crowdfunder UK
crowdfunder.co.uk/p/riversidecom…

Take a look at RUSS Crowdfunder to create a community garden for the people of Ladywell, SE London. Access to neighbourhood green spaces like these can improve mental + physical health, community cohesion, nature connection and biodiversity crowdfunder.co.uk/p/riversidecom…

The community curator roles are open to those with a connection to London Borough of Lewisham and previous curatorial experience is not required.

We are particularly interested in hearing from anyone with lived experience of migration and/or under the age of 25.

Those selected will receive on-site training in curation, as well as guided site visits at other local museums and cultural institutions based on the interests of the cohort of curators.

Just a week to go to apply for this opportunity to be a (paid) community curator!

Happy New Year! The RUSS hub is open for community meetings theruss.org/hiring-the-hub/

Creekside Discovery Centre Listen to the amazing life story of the eels found in the creek. They begin life in the Sargasso Sea before journeying here to grow (and settle on a sex) and then travel back to breed 15 or so years later.

After winding through Ladywell Fields and past the new RUSS flats at 12 Church Grove, down through to Lewisham and Brookmill Park, the river #Ravensbourne grows up to become a creek and heads for the Thames...
