From January 2022 we’ve been embedded with the Climate resilience team at Lewisham Council – learning about the work they do and exploring the way they make change happen.
From March 2022 the Lewisham Usherettes have been heading out onto the streets of Lewisham to talk with the public about what we’ve found out, and gather the thoughts and opinions of Lewisham residents about how we can use climate adaptation to make the borough the best it can possibly be.
From April 2022 we’ve run workshops with 19 community groups (one for each ward in the borough) to explore all these ideas.
All this work will inspire a 20-minute show that will be performed on the streets of every ward in Lewisham between 21 Jun and 3 Jul at the following locations:
