Trip to Anglesey Abbey winter garden, Sat 16th Feb. @ Coach leaves from Lauderdale House
Feb 16 @ 9:30 am – 5:00 pm

ANGLESEY ABBEY near Cambridge offers one of the finest winter gardens in the South, displaying a remarkable riot of colour at the dullest time of the year. Run by the National Trust, and included in the Royal Horticultural Society handbook, it’s a sight not to be missed.

The Friends of Waterlow Park is organising a coach trip to Anglesey Abbey on Saturday 16th February, leaving from Lauderdale House at 9.30am and back in London by 5pm. We’d be delighted if you joined us!

Prices range from £13.00 – £23.50 (depending on whether you’re a member of the FOWP and/or National Trust or RHS).  Children are a flat £13 each. Any profit made will go towards the Waterlow Park improvement funds.

Ssshhh! Circus Cabaret curated by Lucy Loves Circus @ Jacksons Lane
Jul 16 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

Curated by Lucy Loves Circus

Doffing our cap to the traditions of vaudeville and the origins of circus and cabaret, acclaimed circus blogger Lu Cyrcus curates this very special night, led by Cirque du Soleil’s lead clown Sean Kempton. New and old combine in this evening of contemporary varieté, featuring everything from pole dancing to aerial rope and trapeze, where burlesque meets juggling kettle bells, with a dash of musical saw thrown in for good measure.

A night to tease, whisper and gasp – Ssshhh!
