Submit an event to celebrate Southwark Park’s 150th birthday

Southwark Park is turning 150 this summer and the council is looking to support local park users to stage a grand, week long celebration of everything the park was, is and promises to be. The council is looking to support local people, organisations, schools and businesses in celebrating this important birthday by commissioning a programme of activities and events to take place from 15 to 23 June 2019.

Southwark Council are looking for you to submit your event proposals and have created a small pot of funding for you to bid for if you need a bit of financial help. A total fund of £5,000 is available, with applications welcome for up to £1,000 per event. The deadline for proposals is 18 March.
