What’s WISE16?

It’s community, culture, family, entertainment, food, traditional pubs, history, sports and so many other things to do in Bermondsey and Rotherhithe. WISE16.co.uk is also a platform platform to discuss and reflect upon issues affecting these areas of South East London. It was created as a response to those who are unaware of the diversity of the area in terms of communities and cultural life

Nowadays, we talk about community action or we take community action, wise16 wants to provide support for so many grassroot projects in the area.

Why is it called WISE16?

It was the result of one of those google searches we all do at some point in our life, sort of naive attempt to find a unique name. So when the letter SE16 were typed in the google search box and the expression ‘wise up to’ appeared on the screen, the name for the website was chosen. The term can be used to express someone becoming aware or informed about something; there was no doubt that was and is the intention of the website when it comes to what’s on in Rotherhithe and Bermondsey

Wise Up To Make or become aware, informed or sophisticate
