Southwark Park Reminiscence Project and Book
Hi All Members
Bermondseybeat has just informed me of this Southwark Park Project.
Sounds like an excellent idea, if anyone has some stories to tell about there days at Southwark Park please see email address below.
Dont forget to post them on this site as well for all our Members.
Bermondsey and The Friends of Southwark Park have been awarded a grant by the Heritage Lottery Fund to carry out a reminiscence project. The idea is to tell the history of the park in the words of local people. culminating in a book 'Our Park' which will be published this summer.
We want poeple to draw upon their memories of the park to make the tale as rich as possible. We would like to hear from people of all ages, who are willing to write about their memories of Southwark Park and are happy to consider all stories, opinions and reminiscences for inclusion in the book.
If anyone is interested in getting involved in the 'Our Park' reminiscence project, or simply finding out more, please contact Pat Kingwell at ourpark@live.co.uk
