Past Events
Run, Walk Scoot 2025
Wow, what an event! Our biggest Run, Walk, Scoot event so far with more than 125 locals of all ages having taken part. The rain held uff until the last 15/30 minutes fortunately but when it rained, it really poured as some of the last volunteers were caught in the downpour!
Thank you to all the participants and of course our wonderful volunteers for giving their time.
Jazz on the Lawn
About 300 people enjoyed another fabulous afternoon of Jazz on the Lawn on Sunday 6th August.
Thank you to the South London Jazz Orchestra and to Streatham Park Bowling Club for hosting us, and of course to all our great volunteers for cooking and serving refreshments, our compliments to the chefs!
Furzedown Fun Day 2023
On the wettest and windiest day of the summer... we held our fabulous Furzedown Fun Day! It may have been far from ideal weather but Furzedown supported the event with gusto! To everyone who came along to enjoy the day, supported the artists and bands and bought from the stallholders, to all the volunteers who persevered, hung onto gazebos and kept everyone’s spirits up, and to the FCN planning team who worked for months putting this together, a huge thank you!
Faylands Garden Project
The FCN received a £250 grant from Wandsworth Great Green Week for improvements to Faylands Children's Centre outdoor area.
The money helped us to refurbish the outdoor planters which had fallen into disrepair after the pandemic, providing paint, more soil and compost. We bought plants to re-establish the herb garden and are growing strawberries, tomatoes, cucumber, courgettes, green beans, potatoes and peppers.
