Croydon is the people’s canvas - what does your canvas look like? Join us for a workshop using storytelling, poetry, graffiti & music to connect Croydon’s young people and elders about how they experience Croydon town centre.

Why don’t many young people get involved in decision making, and if they did what would they say? Do our elders feel disconnected from Croydon’s spaces too? Can we, together, make an open floor to talk, engage, communicate, speak truth, create an understanding?

Listen to each others’ stories & turn them into poetry, graffiti & music. Insist that we can be involved in decisions about creating space in Croydon.

Free & open to all; please click through to the Eventbrite page to book a free space so we know how many people to expect!

Croydon Council is creating a new strategy to underpin the regeneration programmes being planned for the town centre. Croydon’s community groups, residents and businesses will be key to shaping Croydon’s vision.

A multi-disciplinary team led by consultants We Made That, experts in urban strategy, design and infrastructure, has been appointed to create a varied programme of community-led activities where participants will be able to influence the vision and strategy.

A programme of workshops to explore the future of Croydon town centre offers residents, businesses and partners the opportunity to get involved.
