November Ongoing


The Tree of Possibilities

You are invited to add your hopes and dreams to our “Tree of Possibilities”…….

Based in our front garden at 308 Brixton Road, our Tree of Possibilities has grown from the idea that it is good for us all to have hopes for the future - whether they are for the world as a whole or just for ourselves.

Take a label, write down your message and tie it to the tree along with everyone else’s – then take a moment to read other peoples contributions.

Just pop in at any time between 9am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.

You will recognize our tree by the lovely sign painted for us by a local artist.
