Green Fair hits Waltham Forest

Be a greenie not a meanie and learn about climate change at this year’s Green Fair

This year’s event at Lloyd and Aveling Park will take place 2pm-7pm, 20 July and will feature creative and musical work by young people inspired by William Morris’ cultural legacy

Visitors on the day will encounter a musical interpretation of William Morris’ green utopia within the park while artwork created by young people working with local artists will also be displayed.

There will also be plenty of information to help residents do their bit to tackle climate change and increase the amount they recycle, fun activities for children, live music, food and drink.

The Green Fair is the Council’s annual environmental event which aims to improve people’s awareness of green issues and help people to make the small changes to their lives, which can help to make a dramatic effect on the environment.

Following a complaint by a resident of Macdonald Road claiming the road had not been swept for 4 weeks, your Focus Team arranged for Kier Street Services to do a thorough clean of both sides of the bridge.

 

When they left all the weeds had been removed and the street was in a class A condition.

 

It was clear however that the street had been swept in recent weeks.

Following complaints about vehicles going up Farnan the wrong way, Cllr Bob Belam visited the area today.

In the 5 minutes that it took me to photograph the area two vehicles attempted to travel the wrong way. Each realising there had been a change to the road lay out reversed and travelled up Kenilworth

I have asked officers to look at the signage again as the signs that are there are obviously not working

Over 200 volunteers from the Church of Latter Day Saints transformed one of the boroughs run down parks. They also did some clearing and planting in the sensory gardens behind Walthamstow Library.

Cllr Bob Belam was on hand to thank the volunteers on behalf of the borough.

They have really done a splendid job.

I hope the residents appreciate the change.

Shame Cllr Reardon did not see fit to visit one of her parks.
