Pippa’s friend has organised a Green Saturday sale (rather than a Black Friday one).

Idea: table top sale of good quality items including homeware, toys, mistaken purchases PLUS retro, vintage, repurposed, upcycled and homemade creations.

20% of all money taken goes to charity. Pippa has a table and her chosen charity is the River Thames Boat Project. It would be great if you could come along and support this local, environmental event.

Date: Saturday 23rd November
Time: 10am – 12 noon
Venue: United Reform Church Hall, 35 Hampton Hill High Street, TW12 1NB
Tea and homemade cakes available

See flyer here for more details.

Please note that the AGM of the River Thames Boat Project will take place at 8pm on Monday 4th November at The Pavilion Health Club, Hurst Lane, East Molesey, KT8 9DX.

Members will receive the papers by email (or post: if requested).

After almost 30 years at our current address on Hill Street, we need to find new office accommodation. Fothergills have generously allowed us to use our bijou office for a nominal rent but in early 2019 they are downsizing and so RTBP need to find a new space for our 4 staff.

Can you help with any ideas or local contacts who might have some office space to spare?

We need:
– space for 4 people: circa 20 square metres,
– ideally to be close to the boats, so either Kingston or Teddington,
– to be in a new home by February 2019!

If you have any ideas, inspiration or contacts, please get in touch with Pippa (020 8940 3509, pippa@thamesboatproject.org) in the office. Thank you!

Join Peter Finch – chairman of the River Thames Society, and an authority on the river, on a guided river cruise aboard the Thames Discoverer on Sunday 2nd September. Peter will point out local landmarks throughout the trip.

Cruise from Kew Bridge Pier to Chiswick Pier, where you will see and hear about the work of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution, their boat and the equipment they use. The RNLI at Chiswick is a working lifeboat Station. If they have to respond to an emergency on the day, and are not available, then Peter will take you on a short walk to explore the delights of old historic Chiswick.

The round trip will last just over an hour and is suitable for all ages.
The Discoverer will leave Kew Bridge Pier at 11am, 12:15pm, 1:30pm, 2:45pm,
£5 per passenger + booking fee

You can book tickets for the trip here .
