Our Projects

Thamesmead Bloomin
Thamesmead Bloomin Is a project led by a group of local residents, living in the Thamesmead area. It is an organisation which aims to bring Nature into the grey urban landscape of Thamesmead. We intend on doing this by bringing nature and colourful plants to local people's balconies, patios, walls and homes frontages.

Nature - Art
Nature - Art Mural piece was a Dynamic project, bringing art and nature together in Thamesmead. The aim is to involve a local artist, Gary Drostle, who aims to encompass nature and art into the grey urban landscape of Thamesmead. It brought together colourful art and climbing plants to a local Thamesmead wall facade, along a frequently used and key walkway in Thamesmead.

We have been working with the members of TCBS for a number of years now and we have been impressed and pleased by the community spirit and energy that they bring to the table and their practical, get-it-done approach to local activities.

I’ve been looking at the garden for two years and wanting to fill it with colour.
I’ve previously owned a small nursery which I used to run from my scrap yard.
My love for gardening and flowers has been ignited again.
