Coming up in August

 

Coming up in August: a walk to the wharf, a picnic in the park and a gallery coffee

Our monthly Walk: Trinity Buoy Wharf, Saturday 10th August. Meet at Canning Town station, City Island exit, 11.00am

This month’s walk has again been suggested by the walking group themselves.

In 1998, Trinity Buoy Wharf was an empty, derelict site. Now it is a place with studios for people in the creative industries, workspace for people who work to provide transportation on the river, classrooms for education, and indoor and outdoor spaces for arts events and a wide range of activities. For some of us this will be a return visit; for others an opportunity to experience one of our interesting  local venues. SS Robin is currently at the wharf for restoration and there's a new café nearby, Layers Bakery, on Orchard Place.

If you're a member, look out for more info on the day on the walkers’ WhatsApp group.
