Meet the beasts at the Cemetery Park

THERE’S BEASTS, plants and lots of outdoor enjoyment coming up at Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park in Mile End. Join in these special events – or pop into the park when you’re passing to enjoy the great outdoors.

Sunday, 26th May
Beeswax workshop. Learn about the huge range of products that can be made from beeswax – with practical examples.

Tuesday, 28th May
Forest School: with half-term activities for children. Events on at various times and dates throughout the week.

You can also help the Cemetery Park on a voluntary basis, doing simple tasks to help keep the Park fit for visitors. Sessions are held every Tuesday and on the first Sunday of the month. Every Friday there’s volunteering sessions with Grounded Ecotherapy for those who are suffering from mental health issues, substances misuse or homelessness or who just need a bit of eco-therapy. Training – and biscuits – provided.
