Join Seedlings on our Rambles: historical, natural, queer, creative wanders led by Alex Haydn-Williams.
Our second Ramble will take us round Victoria Park.
From when Old Ford was fields, to the first green space in the Victorian East End, to Rock Against Racism in the 80s, art studios in the 90s, and queer hangouts today, Vicky Park is a place of the people.
On Sunday 4th May, Seedlings are going for a wander around its spring finery. We'd love you to join us. Along the way, Will and Alex will talk about the park's queer, radical and natural history. We'll slow down and see what's around us - the blossom, the roots, the water.
The Ramble will finish with a chat and a creative session, where we’ll reflect on the walk and make things. Seedlings will provide some art materials, but please bring your own materials too: your notebook, camera, a laptop if you’re modern.
Sunday 4th May, 2:00pm
Free, with donations here welcome to support the Rambles.

N.B.
This walk is led by queer people committed to the liberation of all. We do not welcome TERFs or Tories. Free Palestine.
If sign up but later find you can't make it, please let us know so we can free up a place for someone else.
We'll let you know the exact meeting point via email.
ACCESSIBILITY
The Ramble route is step-free, and we'll follow paths wherever necessary for accessibility reasons. We’ll go at a pace that suits everyone. There will be frequent breaks to sit down throughout the Ramble.
The Ramble will take an hour and a half or so, depending how fast we go.
The walk will be entirely outdoors, and the creative session will (weather permitting) be outdoors too.
There are gender-neutral toilets at several points on the Ramble.
