Wandle Fortnight 2017
The celebration of all things Wandle is over for another year. We were delighted by the record number of more than 70 events and the support which came from all those who attended. A huge thank you to all the volunteers who did so much to make Wandle Fortnight a success. We plan to run another celebration in September 2018 so do let us have any feedback on what can be improved and what you would like to see.
