Wandsworth Council’s Deputy Leader Kemi Akinola

Wandsworth Council’s Deputy Leader Kemi Akinola popped in to see Layers of Truth: Unveiling Perspectives at the Pavilion on the Battersea riverfront as part of #LDF23

Supported by Wandsworth Council, this collaboration with South Thames College and the community is an outdoor art installation designed by Roopa S Basu that celebrates the multifaceted nature of truth.

Our unique life journeys, cultural backgrounds, personal values, and emotions influence how we perceive and interpret the world that we live in.

It is brought to life with precious contributions from members of society and students from @souththamescollege

Activating the Low Line through Vauxhall and Batte

Activating the Low Line through Vauxhall and Battersea

🚇 Hidden from sight - join architects Allies & Morrison along with Wandsworth Council and Lambeth Council for a FREE indoors talk on Wednesday 20 September exploring how to create the Low Line.

Public realm, economic opportunities and connecting communities all come together in proposals to link up south London's railway arches.

Once abandoned to industry, the unique Victorian viaduct running through the heart of Battersea to Vauxhall now presents a new opportunity for Wandsworth Council and Lambeth Council to work together to open up vibrant public spaces.

In a celebration of local heritage and culture, historic and hidden arches could be brought to life with new business and community spaces alongside walking routes and leisure activities. Building on the successes of the neighbouring Southwark Low Line, the arches are envisaged as a new place to support a wide range of activities. Join the architects to hear how reimagining the 250 arches that make up this Victorian low line could provide residents, local workers and visitors with a new way to experience this exciting part of London.

Where: TXF Media Office, ground floor of Madeira Tower Unit 1, 32-34 Ponton Road, SW11 7BA

> 6pm-6.30pm - Enjoy free food provided by Waste Not Want Not Battersea, who turn surplus food from New Covent Garden Market into delicious food for the local community.

> 6.30-7.15 - Hear from various speakers about the Nine Elms transformation and it's history, get an insight into the designs for Arch42 from the architects, including seeing fabrications of the final design, and hear how local young people have helped shaped the project.

> 7.15-7.30 - A chance to ask the speakers questions
