Oval Farmers' Market special day 2 April

Come and enjoy the Farmers' Market

Now that the sun is shining, the Farmers' Market in St Mark's Churchyard at the Oval is in celebratory mood. Make a date to come to a special market on Saturday 2 April, when we will be marking the official granting of planning permission for the market to use the site. We have invited the new Mayor of Lambeth to join us.

Oval Partnership will also have a stall at the market where we will be updating you on the progress of the project to upgrade and landscape the St Mark's Churchyard area. Many of you will have been involved in the consultation last year and have been asking what's happening. We will hold a short Annual General Meeting at 10.30am, where we will elect officers for the coming year and present our accounts. Please try to attend that meeting to support us in our continuing work. If you would like to stand as a member of the management committee, please get in touch at contactovalpartnership@gmail.com to let us know and find out what's involved.

We look forward to seeing you on Saturday 2 April!

To make our Bazaars even more successful, we need more volunteers to help before, during and after the Bazaar.  We are looking especially for a few strong people to help collect and carry the more bulky items.  We also need a van and driver to help pick up items from homes.  We especially need help Friday evening.  The next Bazaar is scheduled for Saturday, 12 March, from 11am to 1.30pm at St. Anselm’s Church Hall at Kennington Cross.  Donations can be dropped off at the Hall on Friday evening between 6 and 8 pm and Saturday morning from 9 to10 am. 

How much money we make is directly tied to how much is donated and how many people turn up, so please come along and help us.  We hope to use the proceeds from the March Bazaar to fund Tai Chi classes, free to all our community!

Lambeth's parks could be used for more concerts to gain revenue

12:55pm Monday 14th February 2011

Parks and green spaces in Lambeth may be hosting more public events under plans to raise funds for council services.
Previously there have been limits on the number of events that could be held on Clapham and Streatham Commons and Brockwell and Kennington Parks.
The restrictions on the number of events were removed at a Cabinet meeting last year The council claimed an extra £1.25m a year could be raised.
Lambeth's cabinet member for culture, sport and the 2012 Games, Councillor Florence Nosegbe, said: "Lambeth has some of South London's best green spaces and they are a great resource for people who live and work here.
"Our parks already host a number of great events, from small community shows to larger events like the Lambeth Country Show in Brockwell Park, and SW4 on Clapham Common.
"These types of events are always popular and help to attract visitors and money to the area and local economy.
"We won't be holding events every weekend by any stretch of the imagination and people will still be able to use their local park when there is an event being held. It is about finding the right balance.
"Around 600,000 people enjoy a range of events organised or facilitated by the council's events team within our parks and open spaces every year. I am keen to ensure that future decisions concerning further events in parks and open spaces take proper account of the need to protect, and where possible enhance those spaces."
