Brockwell Lido Users group BLU is holding its annual general meeting and a forum this Saturday ( 24 September) beginning at 10am sharp at the Lido. Coffee, croissants and cake will be available from 9.30.
Every user – and non-users – can attend and share views and opinions. You need to sign up for the BLU newsletter to become a member (which is not the same as Lido membership itself).
Representatives of Lambeth council and Fusion, the company that runs the Lido, are due to be present.
BLU, founded in 2001, campaigned to keep the Lido open and has about 1,500 members. Recent AGMs have attracted about 80 people. BLU is funded entirely by voluntary donations and subscriptions and sales of BLU merchandise.

Hi!
We are a local company (Jar and Fern, Peckham) who make unique hand crafted terrariums. What are Terrariums? Terrariums are plant arrangements that are built inside of sealed glass containers, creating an ecosystem which allows the plants to need little to no watering. These are great for people who don’t like looking after plants or who travel a lot and are unable to water plants regularly – as well as being visually stunning home decorations.
We are holding a brunchtime workshop (11am – 1:30pm) on the 8th October at Brockwell Park Community Gardens and would love to show you how to make your own terrarium, which will be all yours to take home with you. We provide all the equipment and guidance as well as tea + coffee (cold brewed!) + light refreshments all for an early bird price of £25. Normally we sell these types of terrariums alone for £17-20!
We offer group discounts and tickets can be found at http://www.billetto.co.uk/jarandfern , please check out our instagram also @jarandfern and feel free to message me if you have any questions.
Thanks!
