@SBonnellSchool So good to see these trips happening again. My girls missed out - the covid generation.

After an extra hour in bed on Sunday morning, what could be better than some fresh air and chat on #WansteadFlats? Special 💚💚💚 feel good factor comes for free! #E12 #E11 #E7 Project now supported by @NewhamLondon 😃

Such a beautiful morning on #WansteadFlats. Thank you for those who joined us to collect a very decent haul of rubbish. Inspiring to see nature recovering from the damage of the summer fires and lack of rain. 💚💚Next litter pick Sunday 30th October #E7 #E11 #E12

This image of a woman shirtless in a sports bra - hugely significant. This is a woman’s body - not for sex or show - just for the sheer joy of what she can do and the power and skill she has. Wonderful. #Lionesses

Thanks to all our pickers today - lovely to see pickers old and new. Roved a bit further afield today and found this plaque from 1953. Hard to imagine #wansteadflats will be green again, but they surely will. 💚💚💚

Been largely off public transport for almost two years. Super disappointed to learn that despite having all that time to reflect on their behaviour, people STILL stand right by the doors. 🙄🙄😬😬😂

[Sarah Shaw @SarahShawFG]

@rectripp Oh I know this one. Childrens bedrooms. Always. ALWAYS.

[WansteadFlatsPickersCollective @Flats_Pickers]

Totally get that today we all want to stay inside and dodge storm Arwen. But tomorrow it’s gonna be a dreamy 2 degrees and maybe sunny. Wrap up warm and join us. 11-12.30 #WansteadFlats Capel Rd, opp Golden Fleece. Just half an hour will surely blow away those cobwebs!

[Sarah Shaw @SarahShawFG]

@SBonnellSchool Was such a great evening. Well organised and just brilliant to be back in SBS and meet teachers.

[WansteadFlatsPickersCollective @Flats_Pickers]

Litter picking gives you wings! Join us on Sunday 28th November and show #WansteadFlats some 💚. Meet opposite Golden Fleece pub, Capel Road, E12 11am. #E7 #E12 #E11. All welcome and equipment provided.

@fussellface @NewhamLondon @JamesAsser @rokhsanafiaz @BetterStsNewham It’s mind boggling that we residents took the time to carefully consider bids and back ones we thought would benefit our borough the most. Then that whole democratic process is undermined on the basis that people who didn’t take the time to participate in the process MAY object…

[WansteadFlatsPickersCollective @Flats_Pickers]

We were few in number but strong of arm. Seven hardy pickers braved the wind and then enjoyed glorious sunshine and collected 20 bags. Come join us next month - Sunday 28th November 11-12.30. #E12 #E7 #WansteadFlats

[WansteadFlatsPickersCollective @Flats_Pickers]
