    Talk at BPCG | Kate Bradbury: One Garden Against the World

    25 July 2024 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
    Brockwell Park Community Greenhouses Brockwell Park, Herne Hill, London, United Kingdom

    Kate Bradbury is an award-winning garden writer, broadcaster and TV presenter based in Hove, specialising in wildlife gardening. Her new book, One Garden Against the World is a beautiful, uplifting story chronicling the joys and challenges of nurturing biodiversity in urban spaces. Despite the beauty of her own garden oasis, Bradbury grapples with climate change anxiety and the urgent need for collective action to address habitat loss and rising temperatures. Part call to arms, part intimate nature diary interwoven with personal anecdotes about her family, relationships and beloved rescue dog, Kate’s book rallies us all in the fight against climate change and habitat loss by urging us to connect to the natural world via our outdoor spaces. In conversation, Kate will give us ideas about what we can all do, no matter how small our space, to encourage wildlife and make a positive impact on the planet. Tickets are Pay What You Can from £7 | Find out more and book here

    Gig at the Greenhouses | Mambista with Brixton Chamber Orchestra Street Band

    28 July 2024 @ 6:30 pm - 10:30 pm
    Brockwell Park Community Greenhouses Brockwell Park, Herne Hill, London, United Kingdom

    Brixton Chamber Orchestra is a product of local talent and the unique blend of creative energy and cultural diversity that characterises Brixton, and the Street Band was born out of the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions. Passionate about the power of live performance, the Street Band was created as indoor performances were discouraged and a dynamic ensemble with an eclectic repertoire spanning from New Orleans swing to drum & bass and pop was born. www.brixchamber.com Come rain or shine, as we can take shelter in the greenhouse and under marquees if the weather is unkind to us. Join us for a wonderful session of seriously good sounds! Book here

    £12 – £15

    To accompany their three Channel Crossings the Brockwell Swimmers Club will be attempting to swim a matching distance at the Lido on the morning of Saturday 3rd August. This will be a combined swim with a goal of reaching a total distance of 21 miles, which measures 676 lengths of the lido. How many of these could you do? If you want to join and pledge some lengths towards this epic goal you can sign up on their web site. This event will be raising money for the RNLI, the Royal National Lifeboat Institution, who help protect so many swimmers around the UK every year. It provides, on call, a 24-hour lifeboat search and rescue service to 100 miles out from the coast of the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland and a beach lifeguard service on over 200 beaches in England. The RNLI continues to rely on donations and legacies for its income. Please donate by clicking here.
