The Friends AGM

Just a quick reminder about our AGM next Wednesday. We will talk about all that’s happened on the Common over the past year and we’re very pleased to welcome the following guest speakers:

Olivia Pearcey will hold a Q&A session on Lambeth events run on the Common
Lee Heykoop will be speaking on the new design for the Rookery Cascade
Thomas Talbot, from Inkspot, will give us an update on Streatham Common’s microbrewery (samples will be on sale in the cafe along with wine and soft drinks)

If you’d like an opportunity to take an active role in what happens across the Common then we are also looking for people to join the Friends Executive Committee. I hope to see you there.
