Camberwell Festival dates 16 June to 24 June 2018
What happens when artists and medics mix? Camberwell is the place to find out as this year’s Camberwell Arts Festival explores the theme of All’s Well – the motto adopted by the Metropolitan Borough of Camberwell when it was granted the right to a coat of arms in 1901.
It all began when Londoners first decided that the waters of the Camber Well were a remedy for life’s ills. Ever since, Camberwell has been a cradle for medical discovery and innovation, particularly in the area of mental health and well-being, and All’s Well is an opportunity to explore the unique cultural and scientific mix of the local area.
From 16th – 24th June, Camberwell will become a crucible of scientific and artistic experimentation and collaboration. From art performances to anatomy classes, wishing wells to well-being seminars, we’re looking to promote the work of local artists, performers, health practitioners and local residents as part of this year’s Festival Fringe.

Black History Month has been celebrated widely for many years honouring the achievements, culture, and the history of black people.
In Southwark, Black History Month has been recognised for over 20 years with a month long programme of exciting and inspirational events and workshops. Every year throughout October people, schools, libraries, groups and organisations host events and get involved with the celebration of black history.
Community grants are now available for BHM 2018
There is a long standing commitment to continue offering the community a vibrant selection of events and activities through programmes that provide insight into the history and culture of the African, Caribbean and diaspora communities.
We offer a number of small grants of up to £500 to enable smaller community celebrations of Black History to take place. For larger, more complicated events we also offer larger grants of up to £2,000.

Veolia Southwark fights plastic waste and gives boost to local community projects Veolia Southwark, through their Recycling Fund for Communities, is once again looking for local community projects to support, which focus on protecting the environment and encouraging people to do the right thing with their waste.
This World Environment Day (Tuesday 5th June) Veolia Southwark is inviting local community groups to the Recycling Fund Launch 2018, an event for people with ideas for protecting resources and improving their local environment. Attendees will be able to tour Veolia Southwark’s recycling facility to see what happens to their plastics and other recyclables after collection. There will also be an opportunity to learn more about the Recycling Fund for Communities and talk to Veolia Southwark’s team about getting their project funded, as well as getting other kinds of support such as materials, equipment or volunteers.
Anyone seeking funding for projects that protect the environment or inspire people to do the right thing with their waste is eligible to attend. Places are limited, for more information and to sign up to the free event visit recyclingfundlaunch2018.eventbrite.co.uk .
