where people and urban wildlife thrive together
Creekside Discovery Centre is a pioneering urban wildlife charity in south-east London.
We protect and enhance unique river and wild habitats, helping people of all ages connect with the wonder of urban nature.
Through conservation, education and community engagement, we show that even in the heart of the city, people and wildlife can thrive together.
Sue Godfrey Nature Park Fete: Sunshine, Wildlife and Wader Wanging
We were delighted to welcome more than 150 people at Sue Godfrey Nature Park for this year’s fete. There was sunshine, a rescued jay supervising proceedings, homemade cake that sold out, and, naturally, a fiercely contested game of wader wanging.
