Many thanks to all who came along to our annual carolling under the conker tree, was a lovely Christmassy hour. Special thanks also to @tomcarradine, Frani and Fran for accompanying us!
Join us to sing traditional and family festive favourites under the conker tree on River Lawn and show that this is a useful space worthy of Village Green status. Wrap up warm and bring a torch or lantern!

A trip down memory lane today, with a quick visit to where it all began for us! Five years ago this amazing tree was threatened with being cut down, but thanks to brilliant brave campaigners, it was saved & the conkers are bigger than ever! @KeepRiverLawn#ConkersNotConcrete

Disastrous news for rivers and estuaries as the Govt bins the one piece of decent environmental legislation that it had implemented. One step forward two steps back. @RiverActionUK @Feargal_Sharkey @ChrisGPackham @watsonchas https://t.co/nGagk5rvbi
The site is in the highest flood risk possible and is home to #Tonbridge Model Engineering Society's Miniature Railway.

Following the publication of Tonbridge and Malling Leisure Trust's Business Plan which identifies their preference for relocation of leisure services now at the Angel Centre to the site next #Tonbridge Swimming pool we have applied for Tree Preservation Orders for the 27 trees.

Barden Residents will be meeting at the #RiverLawn end of Barden this time, so some volunteers can #litterblitz this area as part of the @TheBigHelpOut23
This year residents in the London Borough of Haringey sponsored 280 street trees 🌳through @Treesforstreets
In one tree-less Tottenham street, neighbours clubbed together to crowdfund 18 new trees. 🍾
Inspiring.

I’ve spent the winter taking cuttings from some of the rarest clones of the rare native black poplar tree & transporting them to their new home on the River Roding by backpack, bike & tube. I’ve planted over 100 potential new trees & now waiting to see which ones burst into life
The #KeepRiverLawnGreen campaign was spearheaded by Mark in the early days, and would possibly be a block of flats if not for him. It would certainly have one tree less. Good luck in your re-election campaign for #JuddWard 💚🌳💚

Good news that since climbing the Wellingborough Lime Tree, @NNorthantsC seem to be taking their responsibilities seriously & no further trees have been felled. Hoping this continues & NNC demand the developer makes public the docs below, which will determine if felling is lawful
