Tidy Up Session Medway Parklet

Mar 15, 2026 | Active Richmond, Educate Richmond, Healthy Richmond, Heritage Richmond, RR&BA

Community activation in action.

A few local neighbours near the Medway Parklet (corner of Medway Street/ Woodchester Avenue) have started to take ownership of this beautiful corner and keeping it tidy.

Feel free to pick any weeds as you walk by to Medway Bridge!
