Roots4summer 2021 Roots4Summer 2021 Roots4Life is taking part in the Royal Greenwich Together: Holiday Food and Fun programme. This year we are running a four-week summer holiday camp for Greenwich children who are starting secondary school in September 2021.

Activities on offer will include: • Growing and pick your own vegetables • Cooking and baking • Nature and food trails • Team sports and exercise including frisbee, football and Zumba • Arts and crafts • Lunchtime meal and healthy snacks provided every day • Family visits day on Thursday afternoons (depending on current Covid-safety guidance) • Poor weather activities will take place inside and in bell tents on site Dates The Roots4Summer camp will run Mondays-Thursdays from 10 – 2pm at The Baker Centre from Monday 26 July until Thursday 18 August 2021. About Roots4Life Family fun day planting seeds at Roots4Life Roots4Life is a new charity set up to address the physical and mental health challenges that come with malnutrition, obesity and social isolation.

Activities will by run in these groups and the same Team Leader and Team Leader Assistant will be with the group for the duration of the camp. All events and activities will adhere to latest UK Government and Public Health England guidance. Roots4Life’s organisational risk assessment has an overview of potential risks from Covid-safety, handling an outbreak, managing track and trace, to dealing with serious incidents. Each individual event has a separate risk assessment which deals with Covid safety, social distancing and managing hygiene from toilet cleaning schedule to provision of PPE and sanitation for staff, volunteers and visitors. For any group impacted by a Covid-case, we would switch to an online support and delivery service.

BECKENHAM COPERS COPE & KANGLEY BRIDGE Character The introduction of the railway in mid-Victorian times saw Beckenham develop from a small village into a town on the edge of suburbia. The majority of dwellings in the area are Victorian with some 1940’s and 50’s flats and houses. On the whole houses tend to have fair sized gardens; however, where there are smaller dwellings and flatted developments there is a lack of available off-street parking. During the later part of the 20th century a significant number of Victorian villas were converted or replaced by modern blocks of flats or housing. Ten conservation areas have been established to help preserve and enhance the appearance of the area reflecting the historic character of the area.

  • Green Chain Walk – Section 6 of 11
    Transport for London.. Green Chain Walk. Section 6 of 11. Oxleas Wood to Mottingham. Section start: Oxleas Wood. Nearest stations Oxleas Wood (bus stop on Shooters Hill / A207) to start: or Falconwood . Section finish: Mottingham. Nearest stations Mottingham to finish: Section distance: 3.7 miles (6.0 kilometres). Introduction. Walk in the footsteps of royalty as you pass Eltham Palace and the former hunting grounds of the Tudor monarchs who resided there. The manor of Eltham came into royal possession on the death of the Bishop of Durham in 1311. The parks were enclosed in the 14th Century and in 1364 John II of France yielded himself to voluntary exile here. In 1475 the Great Hall was built on the orders of Edward IV and the moat bridge probably dates from the same period. Between the reigns of Edward IV and Henry VII the Palace reached the peak of its popularity, thereafter Tudor monarchs favoured the palace at Greenwich. Directions. To reach the start of this section from Falconwood Rail Station, turn right on to Rochester Way and follow the road to Oxleas Wood. Enter the wood ahead and follow the path to the Green Chain signpost. Alternatively, take bus route 486 or 89 to Oxleas Wood stop and take the narrow wooded footpath south to reach the Green Chain signpost. From the Green Chain signpost in the middle of Oxleas Wood follow the marker posts south turning left to emerge at the junction of Welling Way and Rochester Way. Cross Rochester Way at the traffic lights and enter Shepherdleas Wood.

The ALGG SPG document is guidance that is supplementary to London Plan policies. While it does not have the same formal development plan status as these policies, it has been formally adopted by the Mayor as supplementary guidance under his powers under the Greater London Authority Act 1999 (as amended). Adoption followed a period of public consultation, and a summary of the comments received and the responses of the Mayor to those comments is available on the Greater London Authority website. It will therefore be a material consideration in drawing up development plan documents and in taking planning decisions.
