The Galleywall Nature Reserve is a small plot of land which has been owned by Southwark Housing for decades. It was used by the adjacent Galleywall School for some time before the school closed. It has been maintained by a group of volunteers, the Friends of Galleywall Nature Reserve, since 2004, under an ongoing long-term agreement with the council.
The reserve is based in Bermondsey, South London. It is populated with native trees and shrubs, and a carefully maintained pond. We often run open days on weekends, and children are well catered for, with a number of games organized around the plants and wildlife.
We are happy to let you know that our open days will be held on the following dates, from 2 – 4 pm
Sunday 12th March

There is always a campfire, tea and something to roast on the fire, and there are things to do for children and families. If you feel like just chilling it is a great place to do that, but if you feel like getting your hands dirty there are always planting, clearing and maintenance tasks to do.
Just turn up!
