What's on in Lea Bridge Gardens

Greater London, England

Lea Bridge Gardens sits quietly in Greater London, a place where you can find real music without needing to hunt for it. The Mill has been hosting bands and shows for years, keeping the local scene lively even when the rest of the city feels a bit slow. It is not about how big the crowd gets, but about who is playing and whether you will enjoy the evening. You might catch an open mic night or see a local artist get their first real stage time nearby. Near Here keeps all these bits of culture in one spot so you do not have to waste time scrolling through endless lists. Just grab your coat and head down there for a proper night out without the fuss.

Sunday Creative Writing Course: Five Weeks of Spring

Join writer and teacher, Anna Dempsey, for this five-week course of guided fiction writing, sharing words in a tender, supportive community. This course is perfect for writers of any stage who want to explore their voice, try new ideas, finish a writing project or connect with fellow creatives in a relaxed and welcoming environment. Each week, you will focus on different elements of short story and novel writing including plot, dialogue, character, setting and pacing. You’ll be looking at spring inspired writing and pop culture to do this. Think the ridiculous film Spring Breakers meets Anne of Green Gables meets Mary Oliver in a field of sunflowers. These five weeks are a great time to start a new short story, novel or dive back into some old idea notebooks. Course details When: Every Sunday from 29 March, 11.30am-1.30pmDates: 29 March, 12 April, 19 April, 26 April, 3 May(Please note we are skipping Easter Sunday on 5 April) Where: SET Social, 55a Nigel Road, Peckham, SE15 4NP What to expect: Guided writing exercises each week, handouts and optional writing homework Opportunities to share your work out loud with a welcoming group A chance to be part of a creative community (yay friends) Each week, two writers share up to 2,500 words and receive thoughtful feedback from Anna and the group The bar and cafe will be open throughout the workshop, providing coffee, tea and other refreshments. ***This course is an inclusive feminist space open to all.

SET Social DIY Community Garden - Sunday Gardening Sessions

Ever wanted to grow your own food, or just spend a quiet Sunday surrounded by green things and good people?The DIY Community Garden at SET Social is a shared space for planting, learning, and spending time together outdoors. Whether you’re watering seedlings, pulling weeds, sharing snacks, or simply sitting in the sunshine, there’s always something gentle and satisfying happening in the garden. The garden is looked after collectively by SET Social members, local neighbours, and anyone curious enough to get their hands a little dirty. We grow vegetables, herbs, and flowers, and care for the space with curiosity, collaboration, and kindness at the heart of things. Sunday sessions are open, informal, and pressure-free. No gardening experience is needed and there’s no expectation to stay the whole time. Bring yourself, a mug for tea, and if you like, a plant or cutting to share. Want to get involved? Drop by during one of our gardening sessions every Sunday 2-4pm. No booking or experience required. You can also join the SET Garden WhatsApp group to hear about upcoming sessions, plant swaps, and ways to help out. Follow along on for more updates and glimpses of what’s growing.
