DESCRIPTION:We now have a meeting time of noon at East Croydon station.   \nPlease gather in the ticket hall area and\, once together and railcard options considered\, we’ll catch the next fast train to Victoria then the tube’s Circle Line to Notting Hill Gate. \nSo far\, I have twelve definite attenders and I’ll confirm\, separately\, to each of you that you’re on the list.  If you have not yet “signed up” but would like to come\, please let me know.  All extras welcome!  (If you would like to link up with us somewhere en route\, or later in the afternoon\, please note my phone number 07968 035522 and ring to find where we are.) \nThe intention is: \n1 To enjoy a couple of hours or so wandering through Portobello Road Market\, browsing at the stalls and their wares.  There should be various food outlets to use but do bring your own packed lunch\, if you would prefer to – and\, of course\, drinks for what we hope will remain a warm\, good-weather day. \nHere’s a link to some interesting features in the market area: https://londonist.com/london/great-outdoors/oddities-to-spot-on-portobello-road \n2 From the market\, we’ll walk to the Museum of Brands. This should have numerous items from over the decades that will tweak our memories\, especially while exploring “The Time Tunnel”.\nhttps://museumofbrands.com/ \nFor this museum visit\, we can gain a group discount\, if we have ten or more people. \nGroup prices:\nConcessions £6.30 pp\nOrdinary adult £8.30 pp \nWe can have a mixed-age grouping. \n(Non-group prices are £7 concessions\, £9 ordinary adult.) \nFor those who might like to extend our day by enjoying a meal together\, following the museum\, we hope to find an eatery in that area. \n  \nIreen

SUMMARY:Trees4Croydon Walk
DESCRIPTION:The Trees4Croydon initiative runs from 10th June to 15th July. There will be a presentation and full explanation by organiser Sam Baker at the Club Night on Tuesday 13th June.  \n  \nThis will be a 2.5 – 3 hours depending on general pace of the group. \nTrees4Croydon initiative is organised by Croydon Climate Action (previously called Croydon Friends of the Earth). The purpose is to improve local physical and mental well-being by encouraging residents to walk and explore natural surroundings. And\, to help plant new trees in deprived areas around the borough: Thornton Heath; West Croydon e.g. Thornton Heath Recreation Ground and neglected wildlife and wetland area\, near Viridor’s Beddington Lane Incinerator. The trees will be paid for via local business sponsors. Suitable trees will be sourced\, planted and nurtured (for 3 years) by environmental organisations like National Trust. The more walks we complete\, between 10th June and 16th July\, will mean more trees will be planted. For further information: https://www.trees4croydon.com/ \nDate/ time: Sunday 25th June at 11am \nStart Point: Belmont railway station (accessed via West Croydon station (one stop after Sutton) \nStart and finish points are within Zone 6 of the Oyster Travel Card so participants can use Freedom passes\, if necessary. \nWe will cross Banstead Downs then follow a track to Oakes Park. Approx. the halfway point that has a cafe with toilets for those who might need the facilities. We’ll continue through a lavender field\, and some meadows\, then choose another path out to more residential area above Coulsdon\, called The Mount. Despite being close to London\, it is surprisingly rural. \nThe terrain: for the walk will be grassy footpaths and rough stony tracks with three stiles to climb over. However\, it’s not very hilly but has some gentle inclines. Please dress suitably for weather & terrain! \nEnd point: Woodmansterne station. \nThis is on Tattenham Corner line to London Bridge via Purley and East Croydon. Woodmansterne station has a pub nearby\, for refreshments\, or we can continue to Coulsdon\, with more choice. \n\nCOPSE members who want to join Trees4Croydon walk on 25th June can enter their own daily or weekly walking/ cycling miles between 10th June and 16th July on atlasGo app\, under Sustainable Voices Team: \n\n\n\n\n\nDownload the Atlas GO well-being app onto mobile phone – instructions at https://www.trees4croydon.com/participants\nSelect team name (COPSE)\nRegister yourself and details regarding miles completed\n\n\n\n\n\nThis will add to the miles for the Trees4Croydon initiative so more suitable trees are planted in Thornton Heath and West Croydon. \n  \n
