Join Seedlings for a wintery Ramble along the River Lea on Saturday 7th February!
We’ll wander past canal boats, rewilding, the spiritual heartland of Sunday league football, 1990s anti-roadbuilding protests, and tomorrow’s queer parties.
As Alex guides us through queer, radical and ecological histories, we’ll also have moments to reflect and create, led by Will.
The ramble is fully accessible, with gender-neutral toilets available near the route (more details below). It will last about an hour and a half, starting at Millfields Park in Clapton, and finishing in Hackney Wick, where we’ll go for a drink.
Come along for as long as you’d like - we’d love to see you there!
Saturday 7th Feb, 1pm
Free, with donations welcome to support the Rambles.
Sign up HERE - limited places!

ACCESSIBILITY
The Ramble route is step-free, and we'll follow paved towpaths. There’s an incline with cobbles on the nineteenth-century bridge by Millfields Park, and a modern paved ramp up from the river at Hackney Wick, with a lift on the other side of the bridge. If anything might cause accessibility issues, please just let us know via email, and we’ll look at alternative routes.
We’ll go at a pace that suits everyone. There will be frequent breaks to sit down throughout the Ramble.
The Ramble will take around an hour and a half, depending how fast we go. The walk will be outdoors. You can join us for as long as you’d like.
Accessible and gender-neutral toilets are available inside Millfields Coffee in Clapton, where we’ll begin, and at Number 90 in Hackney Wick, where we’ll finish the Ramble.
