New Members Walk Hampstead Heath and Highgate Woods (free) 9 Miles Sunday 2nd October @ Golders Green Tube Station
Oct 2 @ 10:30 am – 4:30 pm

Starting and finshing at Golders Green, this is a country walk inside London. It is suitable for existing, new and prospective members. Despite being well within London it is over 85% on tracks and paths , passes through several ancient woodlands and visits many bodies of water. It even goes along a disused railway line.

It is a good opportunity for prospective members or those just thinking about joining to meet existing members and find out more about the Central London Outdoors Group

If you can’t make this walk, please tell your friends as they might be interested
I will lead you past West Heath,  Parliament Hill (with one of the very best views of the City) and Highgate Ponds. Ascending Highgate Hill, we will   continue to Highgate Wood where I intend stopping  for lunch (you can buy a meal or a drink  or bring your own picnic to eat on the adjoining lawn) After going through Queens Wood we pass Highgate underground station (it is possible to leave the walk here),The Parkland Walk path is a ribbon of green woods high above the houses on  disused railway line. Crossing high above the Archway  we walk through  Waterlow Park to Highgate Village  then descend to Hampstead Heath passing Kenwood House Ken Wood itself and the strange oaks of Sandy Heath and the North End. Finally we walk down the Heath Extension before turning off to return to the start at Golders Green

Children’s Theatre – The Enormous Turnip @ Lauderdale House
Oct 13 @ 10:30 am – 11:30 am

One Moment In Time Theatre present their own version of the classic folk tale The Enormous Turnip – but with a magical twist! We follow the tale of a young girl called Rosie who dreams of carving a special turnip lantern for the Festival of Light. To plant and harvest the turnip, Rosie will need plenty of help from the audience, her animal friends and one small but very important gnome! Little does Rosie know how absolutely enormous her turnip will grow!

“The show was completely magical and the puppetry exquisite. The children were hooked from the outset.”
– Samantha Lane, artistic director, Little Angel Theatre, London

Using beautiful puppetry and engaging story-telling, this performance captivates children’s attention as the action on stage unfolds. The Enormous Turnip is perfect for young children and fun for the whole family.

The Enormous Turnip takes place at Lauderdale House on 13 October, starting at 10:30am. Suitable for children aged 2 and up.

Open-Air Festival: The Tootsie Rollers @ Lauderdale House
Aug 18 @ 7:30 pm – 10:00 pm

The Tootsie Rollers, London’s original retro girlband, fuse old-school classics with contemporary hits.

The Tootsies have taken their unique sound all over the world and played everywhere from royal palaces to music festivals. They count Colin Firth, Richard Branson and HRH Prince Charles amongst their celebrity followers.

Their charity single ‘Walk the Walk’, in aid of breast cancer awareness, shot to number one in the jazz charts, marking their proudest moment to date.

The Tootsie Rollers can’t wait to bring vintage bang up to date at Lauderdale House. Grab yourself a picnic, a glass of prosecco and come roll with The Tootsies!
