On this particular Friday evening, our focus turns to the quiet, persistent force that flows through our landscape: the River Wandle.
In “Wandle: River at Risk”, Bobby Dean introduces and presents his documentary exploring the river’s rich history, the challenges it now faces, and the conservation efforts working to secure its future.
For centuries, the Wandle has shaped industry, supported wildlife, and connected communities. Yet today, like so many natural habitats, it faces mounting pressures from pollution and environmental strain.
This evening offers more than a film. It is an opportunity to understand the delicate balance of a living river — and to discuss the measures being taken, and those still needed, to protect it. There will be time for questions, conversation, and shared reflection.
Join us on Friday 27th February.
Discover the story of a river.
And consider the role we all play in its survival. 🌊
