Support requested;

· Pot plants to swap and give away to and with local residents
· Gardening tools to help with guerrilla gardening on Jolly’s Green
· Cakes baked and food made to share
· Any face painters out there who want to offer ‘urban jungle’ themed faces for local children
· Any willing folk up for running free nature themed activities for children & young people to
enjoy i.e. a nature themed treasure hunt, drawing inspiration from nature drawing sessions
· Skills swaps i.e. making seed bombs, making bird boxes
· Rent a crowd for the day with support from 10am to set up

This event is a way for residents to meet Bow Arts Trust live/workers in an informal environment and take part in free activities as part of Green Balloon Club Week 25th July - 2nd August. Events can be anything from making apple bird feeders to planting seeds but need to be free, safe and suitable for children aged 3-7 and upwards.

Longer term Anna & I have approached Poplar Harca with the plan to develop a temporary garden at the disused Carradale House tennis courts – we will use this event to do consultations about what the garden can look like.

Please reply what you can offer on the day

Thanks – Anna & Anna
