Growing the Alternatives

Join us for a day of community building, skill-sharing, and learning - creating the alternatives we need for people and the planet.
The systems we live in aren’t built to care for us or the natural world. All we have is each other, so this is your chance to connect with others, discover local initiatives, and gain practical skills to help our communities not just survive, but thrive together.

Highlights include:

Workshops on land justice, housing, decolonising economics and more.
Stalls with clothing and plant swaps
Interactive sessions on renewables, retrofit, low carbon cooking and tackling disinformation
Bicycle repair station
Singing with a community choir.
This event is presented in collaboration with South East London Community Energy (SELCE). This event is supported by The National Lottery Community Fund and the Mayor of London, as part of Mayor’s Community Weekend 2025.
