Age UK have a great mix of events happening in and around Lambeth this December. Please see the attached document for more information.

If you have an event you'd like to add to their January event listings please email: [email protected]

Age UK Lambeth are offering Warm and Well in Winter small grants to Lambeth organisations to support delivery of events and activities aimed at older people to promote winter health messages and link them to services in the borough.

In particular they would like to reach people who missed out last year. 

Please note:

Have you spotted any old dairy cows grazing in Streatham?

Bellway Homes has let three lifesize acrylic cows out to graze at local organisations in Streatham as part of their ‘Design a Cow Hide cowpetition’, highlighting development works on the Valley Road Old Dairy Crest site, which will provide a collection of contemporary two bedroom apartments and four bedroom houses.

The Street Trees Coalition has managed to get £67,500 of funding from the Mayors Street Tree Initiative to plant 300 trees in Streatham.

Members of the public have nominated over 60 streets for tree planting http://batchgeo.com/map/LaneAndValeTrees across the whole of Streatham.

With over 60 wreaths laid and many local organisations represented, Streatham's open air service of remembrance is the largest in Lambeth.  

The service is truly multi-cultural and inter-denominational with those of all religions (and none) and many cultures represented.

If you want to remember those who died, pay your respects to those who fought at home and abroad and honour those who survived join us at 10.30am on Sunday 10th November at Streatham War Memorial on the corner of the Streatham High Road and Streatham Common North Side.
