SUMMARY:London Rivers Week 2026: What the River Wants Walk
DESCRIPTION:Join artist Emma Smith for a guided walk along the River Lea that listens closely to the river and the many forms of life it sustains as part of London Rivers Week. \n  \n\n\n\nWhat the River Wants Walk\nCreated in collaboration with local organisations and initiatives working to support the Lea’s ecology – including Eco Active\, Leaside Trust\, East London Waterworks Park\, Rewilding the Old Lea\, community gardeners and local ecologists – this walk offers a rare opportunity to hear directly from those caring for the river. Along the route\, we’ll meet practitioners\, rangers\, and researchers who will share insights into restoration\, rewilding\, and the challenges facing this vital urban waterway. \nRooted in ideas of river rights and agency\, What the River Wants invites participants to walk with the river – to attend to its voices\, its rhythms\, and the multi-species ecologies it harbours. This event forms part of Manifold – an art project by Emma Smith with UCL Multi Lab and local communities\, and the journey weaves together multiple perspectives of the river\, creating space for reflection\, exchange\, and collective imagining. \nThis is a moment for walkers and wanderers of all kinds – including policymakers\, community organisers\, and curious residents – whether you know the River Lea well or are discovering it for the first time. Come to connect\, share perspectives and experiences of the river or simply listen and learn. \nTogether\, we’ll explore how stronger connections between communities and grassroots groups can support more resilient\, living rivers — here and everywhere. \nTracing a path through marshes\, towpaths\, and rewilded urban landscapes\, the walk reveals a patchwork of habitats and community-led projects shaping the Lea’s future. Expect encounters with pollinators\, wetlands\, volunteer initiatives\, and unexpected pockets of urban wildness. \nA walk shaped by curiosity\, with space to listen\, learn and share perspectives along the way. \nRegister here.\n  \nEvent Details\nYou are welcome to walk with us for as much of the route as you wish\nDate: Sunday 23rd May 2026 \nTimes: \n10.00am – Gather at Leaside Trust for a creative making session and guest talks before \n10.45am – Groups set off for a full-day walk (with a shared lunch stop along the route) \n13:00pm – Lunch Stop \n16.30pm – End \nLocation: Meet at Leaside Trust\, 34 Spring Lane Clapton London E5 9HQ \nBring: Comfortable shoes\, plenty of water\, suncream and packed lunch (there are cafes near to the lunch stop location for anyone not wanting to carry food). \n  \n\n\n\nManifold\nThis event forms part of Manifold – an art project by Emma Smith with UCL Multi Lab and local communities. Manifold offers a programme of activities\, embedded in Multi Lab research and local knowledge\, to unlearn ecological autonomy and deepen understanding of our being part of local and global ecologies. \n\n\n\n\nAccess to Venue\nMeeting point: Leaside Trust\, 34 Spring Lane\, Clapton\, London\, E5 9HQ \nPublic transport:\nThe nearest station is Clapton (Overground)\, around a 10–15 minute walk from Leaside Trust.

SUMMARY:London Rivers Week 2026: Tidal Tales - Walking Through Flux & Flow
DESCRIPTION:Kicking off London Rivers Week\, Thames21 will be going on a river walking adventure with artist Remiiya Badru from King Edward Memorial Park\, in Wapping\, and concluding at Blackfriars\, prior to the unveiling of a new artwork in a new exciting space developed for the public realm. \nOn our journey we will be exploring key landmarks along this stretch of river from London’s oldest pub and Captain Kidd\, key bridges and crossings plus some of the lesser known stories of our social geographies\, communities and industrial history. This multisensorial walk will also embody an opportunity to connect to the river as nature for our wellbeing as a sanctuary of sustenance. We will be weaving our way through a number of timelines through witnessing infrastructural and environmental changes. How do we see the river for the future? \nBOOK HERE \nDate and time: Saturday 23rd May. 11.30am-14:00pm \n📏 Distance: ~4.8 km (3 miles) \n📍 Route: We will meet at the new Tideway site at King Edward Memorial Park finishing at the new Tideway riverside public realm at Blackfriars. Click here to view the route we will follow. \n🕒 Duration: ~2 plus hours (give or take depending on pace & breaks) \n👟 Terrain: Flat riverside paths — nice for walking and talking \nArtist Bio: \nRemiiya Badru is a multi-interdisciplinary artist\, whose practice centres on sharing her river-walking adventures through research-informed multimedia artwork and social engagement. She seeks to undertake a multi-layered exploration of the River Thames’ forever changing palette of colour\, sight\, scent\, sound and story\, but also its silences\, omissions and hidden histories of people and place. \nIn her walking practice\, Badru seeks to commune with and responding to the river as a timeless resource from a multi-sensorial perspective\, entering an immersive and embodied meditation in motion. She externalises these experiences through mapping\, wayfinding and placemaking. The stories that Badru seeks to uncover relate to the river as a witness to infrastructural change and flux\, particularly in relation to memory\, colonial and post-colonial histories\, pre- and post-industrial change\, heritage\, natural and man-made environments. \nHer work continues to be navigated by Timehri\, her model ship who is in fact simultaneously her ‘navigator’ and ‘anchoress’ who continues to guide Badru in her travels along the river and associated bodies of water. Together they navigate these embodiments of water as ‘liquid history flowing as a continuum which synchronises the past\, present and future that connects all of us as a global conduit that carries our stories.’ \nAll U18s must be accompanied by an adult.

SUMMARY:London Rivers Week 2026: Liquid History - A Photowalk [FULLY BOOKED - Waitlist Available]
DESCRIPTION:More than just a landmark\, the River Thames has been a water source for Londoners for two millennia; its tides have dictated the shape of the city and the reach of its trade. To walk its banks with a camera is to document the history of the capital. \nJoin Thames21 for a free curated photo walk along the Thames as part of London Rivers Week\, where documentary maker Gemma Duncan\, together with mudlarks Jessica Forde and Lesley McDonnell\, will walk you past historical ‘destinations’ and introduce basic photography composition to spark the creativity behind your next shot. \nStarting at the medieval entrance to Old London Bridge\, we’ll cross the river and walk the Southbank\, stopping at meeting points along the way. At each stop\, you’ll hear about London’s medieval ‘living’ bridge\, Roman London\, the global trade of the 18th–19th centuries\, Frost Fairs\, and stories of the river that has shaped London so much. \nBetween each meeting point\, you’ll have free rein to snap away\, capturing whatever might inspire you. You’ll be given a map before the walk\, so you’ll know when and where to regroup at the next meeting point. \nJust as the River Thames has evolved\, so has photography. We encourage all mediums\, whether you shoot on 35mm film\, a pinhole camera\, a modern DSLR\, or even a toy camera. After the event\, you’ll have the opportunity to submit your favourite photo to the Thames21 team to be featured in a showcase of the river’s history. \nWhether you’re a complete beginner or a photographer with an interest in history\, come and capture this historic river through a new lens. \n  \nWhat to bring: \n● Weather-Ready Gear: This is London! Please bring a waterproof jacket and a protective cover (or a simple plastic bag) for your camera in case of rain. \n● Comfortable Footwear: We will be walking on a mix of pavement and historic\, often uneven ground. \n● Snacks and Water: While there will be places along the Southbank to get supplies\, bring some snacks along if you want something close to hand. \nIf any questions in advance\, please contact Gemma on gemmaduncan.film@gmail.com. \n  \nMeeting point: Lower Thames St\, London – EC3R 6DN \nBook your spot here.\nAll U18s must be accompanied by an adult. \nIf you sign up for the event but later find that you can’t attend\, please let us know as soon as possible. This way\, we can offer your spot to someone else who would love to participate.

SUMMARY:London Rivers Week 2026: River soundwalk led by afromerm [FULLY BOOKED - Waitlist Available]
DESCRIPTION:Join a free community listening walk that traces the Thames riverside from Rotherhithe to Deptford as part of London Rivers Week 2026. \nMove your body\, listen to your surroundings\, and meet new people. \nA soundwalk is\, as Hildegard Westerkamp described in 1974\, “any excursion whose main purpose is listening to the environment.” More recently\, writers such as Allie Martin and ameia camielle smith have reimagined soundwalking as a decolonial practice that we can use to reconnect with our environment. \nWhat to expect: As a group\, we’ll walk at a gentle pace\, tuning into the layers of sound that shape the Thames path\, from the obvious to the overlooked. Soundwalking is an opportunity to slow down and share the experience of deep listening in community. \nafromerm will guide the group\, offering prompts along the way\, whether it’s listening for specific sounds\, trying to listen in silence\, or discussing observations with the group. \nWhat to wear: anything comfortable/weather appropriate + comfortable shoes you can walk in for an extended period. \nWhat to bring: a bottle of water and\, if you like\, a sound recording device (voice notes on a phone work well). \nMeeting point to be confirmed nearer the event. \nafromerm is a sound artist and composer from South London. \nBook your place here. \nAll U18s must be accompanied by an adult. \nIf you sign up for the event but later find that you can’t attend\, please let us know as soon as possible. This way\, we can offer your spot to someone else who would love to participate.
