Our compact team took to the streets of Canning Town to spread the word about Cody Dock’s “Lighting Up the Lea” Open Day—an event that takes place across not just one, but three festivals: Open House, Totally Thames, and Newham Heritage Month. Armed with flyers, we were on a mission to spark curiosity and draw in the crowd. The event is always fantastic, and we’d highly recommend a visit—check out all the details below!
When:
Saturday, 20 September 2025, from 11 am to 6 pm
Where:
Cody Dock, 11c South Crescent, Canning Town, London E16 4TL
What to Expect:
Free activities, workshops, exhibitions, performances, and new installations. Tours of the Cody Dock Boatyard and Frederick Kitchen restoration and a chance to explore the site’s arts, ecology, and heritage offerings.

A return visit to Emmanuel Church to see the wonderful team.
Sybil had planned for us to start the digging of the new flower bed but due to how warm it had been the ground was too hard but as always she had a plan b.
Digging in the already established beds for some new planting and prune back the over hanging tree branches and remove the low shoots.
I was asked to check out a task for next month....painting the room we helped clear last year.
Pruning and digging complete we headed in side for some refreshments....
Next week is a visit to Cody Dock for leafleting to let local residents know about the upcoming event Lighting up the Lea

We made out way to see Ange at Hackney Marshes after double checking she would be there after missing her last time.
They had a delivery of some very long poles which had a mixture of letters on or had been left blank.
Ange told us about the up coming building projects to replace so of the well loved equipment.
With clear instructions of where each pole need to go Adam Paul Nick and Kevin got to work on moving the poles.
I had an extended catch up with Ange who took me to see the project the older children are building with a local group,they have designed and are now helping to build a climbing tunnel and jump platform.....sadly not as high a s the children wanted it to be but Ange has to follow H&S law.
The guys did an amazing job and meant lots of poles ready for the children to paint.
Next week its a visit to Emmanuel Church and this time we will actually get started on the flower bed
