What’s on
Activities at Pembroke House and the Walworth Living Room are a great way to try new things and connect with your neighbours. From sharing food, to learning an instrument, making crafts, cooking together, or learning how to navigate local democracy, our activities offer lots of ways to connect, grow and take action.
The activities take place in our two buildings, Pembroke House (80 Tatum Street, SE17 1QR) and the Walworth Living Room (All Saints Hall, Surrey Square SE17 2JU). The schedule for specific activities is below. But you can also drop by the Living Room for a chat and a cuppa anytime we are open. We always have free tea/coffee and snacks, board games to play, puzzles to make, colouring books to fill in and toys for kids to play with.
The Living Room opening hours are Wednesday, Thursday, Friday 10am-4pm; Saturday 10am-2pm.
