The task here was to help the Windmill set up for their xmas fair. We put up several gazebos (takes teamwork to put some of those up!), and set up tables and chairs for the traders setting up at each of these stalls. The Windmill had also been decked out to host Santa!
The Windmill team were very grateful for our help in helping get these quickly set up.

A little bit of history in central Brixton!
The Friends of Windmill Gardens (FoWG) were formed in 2003 with three aims: * to get the Grade II listed Brixton Windmill restored and opened for public visits – in 2002 it had been put on English Heritage's buildings at risk register; * to make Windmill Gardens park a more welcoming space for local people; * to have a new education centre at the windmill. Windmill Gardens gained a Green Flag Community Award in 2015 and we have just been judged again so our fingers are crossed that we will retain the award for the next two years.
