Highlights of past and future events:

Below are some highlights of events that have taken place in the past year and some to come. Details of date, time and location of events are to be found on the Events Calendar page.

This year's RSPB Big Garden Bird Watch will be held on the weekend of the 28th and 29th January. There will be a stall set up in the park on the Sunday morning, and bird watching walks will take place at regular intervals. See the events calendar page.

The 2012 Family Fun Day will be held on Sunday 15th July. Click here to see more details of activities at last year's event. See picture pages for Fun Days past and present. If you are interested in having a stall at the event, click here for details of how to apply.

On Sunday 10th June  we will hold an event in the George V Memorial Garden within the park as part of the London-wide Open Garden Squares weekend. This year it is very close to the Queen's Diamond Jubilee so we will be doing something a bit special. Watch this space for more details.

We held a litter picking day on Sunday 27th March. A small band of volunteers came and we provided bags and pick-up tools for the job. We removed several large bags worth of litter from all parts of the park, particularly around the edges of the wooded areas which unfortunately some people seem to use as a dump for rubbish. We may well repeat the exercise at a future date and hope to make an on-going difference.

Bird watching walks are held on the first Sunday of each month, except July 
August and September. These months are hard for bird-spotting due to leaf cover and the reduced activity once nesting and rearing are over. Note also that the January walk will be on the second Sunday due to a clash with another RSPB event.  The walks start at 10 a.m. at the Donnefield Avenue entrance to the park. They are open to all comers and are free. Walks last around two hours but you can leave anytime you wish.  Although there are well-surfaced paths now, you may prefer to wear appropriate footwear in wet or muddy weather. Bring your binoculars. More details on the separate events pages, and keep a look out for notices at entrances to the park and the Friends' noticeboard at the Bothy.
