Levi Memorial Community Garden

The raised beds have been built and planted and Levi Memorial Grounds is starting to look like a community garden! See pictures in the Photos section.

Happy Birthday TTSN!!!

TTSN has just turned 1! Thanks to everyone who's helped us move from an idea in a bedroom to an official and organized transition town. Let's see what we can do for the next year

On May 15 TTSN hosted an Open Space event titled:

How can we build a positive future for Stoke Newington?

Now's your chance to get involved, get inspired or finally find out what the heck Transition Town Stoke Newington actually does. For more information check out our Group Pages.

Welcome to Transition Town Stoke Newington

If you are new to Transition Towns or TTSN you should start by registering with this site and reading our About TTSN page. Registering will automatically add you to our news mailing list where you will be able to keep up with everything going on. A lot of the of detailed work of organising projects happens via email, but the forums on this site are a good place to ask questions and start discussions.

Our events group organises monthly social events where we invite speakers to talk about subjects like local food production and recycling and show films like No Impact Man and A Crude Awakening. Our food group is building a community vegetable garden on Yoakley Rd (just off Church St) and is starting a food coop for organic groceries. Our buildings group is actively working on building efficiency projects and ran draught busting workshops last winter. We have a new inclusion group looking at strengthening our links with the wider community and and some new activity is happening in groups like transport.

So, if you would like to get involved please come along to one of our meetings (check the events calendar) or help by joining one of our current projects (check the Open Space Group discussions)that have come out of our May 15th Open Space Event.
