Walks and Events
Following the winding up of the Friends group as we cannot recruit sufficient committee members any future events may be organised through http://www.beckenhamplacepark.com/ and the email address linked there. beckenhamplacepark@lewisham.gov.uk The Friends group ran a series of walks and events during their years of operation 1995 to 2023. the back copies of the newsletters in the newsletter archive page will show the range of events such as themed guided walks on various subjects, botany, bats, insects, local history etc. A visitor centre run by volunteers ran from 1997 to 2022 when it was closed as the premises had to be vacated for RJK properties. Volunteers did some woodland management work and also maintained the Sensory Garden.
Sensory Garden Workdays If you wish to volunteer for the Sensory Garden or Community Gardeners contact; beckenhamplacepark@lewisham.gov.uk Sensory Garden
workdays under the Friends of Beckenham Place Park have ceased as the
Friends group has been wound up. Maintenance of the Sensory
Garden will now be undertaken by London Borough of Lewisham or
volunteers organised by the park ranger.
