Share the love

Three of us swung by the Portico Gallery in West Norwood on Saturday morning to help repair some gazebos from the West Norwood Feast.

After meeting at the front, we had to use our history knowledge to open the gate at the back since the combination key for the lock was only provided to us in a cryptic clue involving history knowledge...

Zoe and I started sorting through some gazebos to find ones that needed repairing while Chris got to work with another local volunteer to start patching up some of the holes on a gazebo we'd already fetched out of storage.

An hour and a half in and we'd patched up three gazebos which were ready to be used again for the Feast with the added bonus that if it rains, they'll protect the stalls underneath them!

West Norwood Feast
A Community market

Feast is a community market in West Norwood run by volunteers on the first Sunday of the month from April to December. Our aim is to 'make West Norwood an even better place to live'. We have 60 plus market stalls with mostly local traders and a community focus with free children's activities, free community stalls and Tea and Talk for older members of the community.
