HAHD 12March16

Hey there!

We have an event coming up *pauses for cheering*

Thames21 Big Count on Isle of Dogs 9:00am -11:30am, Saturday 12th March 10 places available

Meet outside Island Gardens (DLR stop) at 8:45am.

We will be joining Thames21 to help tidy up one of London’s biggest litter hotspots - Newcastle Draw Dock on the Isle of Dogs.

As well as cleaning the site, we will be leading a count to uncover where all the litter is coming from. This is their first even in a series at Newcastle Draw Dock to help answer questions like:

is the litter issue on the Thames getting worse or better?

which types of litter are the most common?

how is the little getting into the river (and how do we stop it)?

Equipment will be provided, so only good boots and a warm jacket are required.

All ages welcome, but children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult.

If you’d like to attend this event email londonhaveahart@outlook.com with your name, age and mobile number.

You’re place will be confirmed via email and a reminder will be sent out nearer the time.

Unfortunately I can’t attend this event but you will be in the very capable hands of Ferne, the lovely new co-captain.

Pretty excited about this one, get yo’self there.

International Have A Hart Day

It’s nearly here & it’s taken me slightly too long to organise but here are the details of the event, if you have any questions please email me at londonhaveahart@outlook.com. 12Dec15 #IHAHD This event is a really community oriented volunteer opportunity for International Have A Hart Day. We’ll be volunteering with Manor House Development Trust (in partnership with London Wildlife Trust). 

The event we’ll be taking part in is made up of two parts; the garden and the kitchen:

one team will be in the kitchen where you will work together to prepare & cook a meal using surplus foods given to us by local businesses & stuff grown in the garden.

the other team will be in the garden, this group will be working together outside helping to maintain & sort the garden.

We’ll then join back up to enjoy the meal lovingly cooked by the kitchen group.

This is a great opportunity for us to help out but also learn a bit ourselves about sustainable living & community. The fresh air is an added bonus ;)

There are 10 spaces available and we’ll be divided up into two teams when we get there.

We’ll meet at Manor House tube station (piccadilly line) at 10.10am, Sat 12th December for a 10.30 start. We should be finished by 3/4pm.

All ages are welcome, under 16s with parent’s permission please (if you’re very young then why not bring your parent along too!)

If you’d like to attend this event please email me at londonhaveahart@outlook.com with your name, age and telephone number. I will then email you to confirm your place & also send you some more details.

As always if you have any questions, please ask away :)

COOL.

We are featured in this weeks episode of the London Nerdfighter group’s podcast: Darling Fetch The Battle Axe

Hosted by nerdfighter&HAHD-er Isabel, San Francisco City Captain Kristan and I talk about @have-a-hart-day, @mydrunkkitchen and superpowers vs magic. If you have 46.55mins free then give it a listen.

[londonhahd]

you know you’ve made a good pun when everyone’s immediate response upon hearing it is “shut the fuck up”

[londonhahd]

Whatever. I didn’t want the banana anyway.

Free on Tuesday morning and live in London?
