Welcome to our Tiny Forest

Forster Memorial Park’s Tiny Forest was planted on 21st March 2024, in partnership with Lewisham City Council and the Friends of Forster Memorial Park. 90 school children from the local Forster Primary and Torridon Primary joined the planting, alongside nearly 40 volunteers from the local community. The Friends of Forster Park were incredibly supportive of the project, and we look forward to this Tiny Forest delivering a new feature within this historic park for the future.
