{ What's on this week }

REVD JAMES BUTTERWORTH - HIS LIFE AND WORK
Monday 22 August
4pm-6pm at John Harvard Library, 211 Borough High Street;
free
A talk by Mary Gray, whose father, the Revd James
Butterworth, was the founder and leading figure in Clubland,
the celebrated youth club on Walworth Road. From 1922 to
1977 Clubland was a haven and an inspiration for young
people and 'JB' or 'Jimmy' Butterworth was its centre. Mary
will look at his life and work and will also show 'Loyalty
and Service', a film exploring Butterworth and the club's
life and times.

MAKE, DO & MEND YOURSELF: BEE DAY
Thursday 25 August
12pm-3pm  at Leake Street Pocket Park, Lower Marsh; free
Bee Day - honey tasting, bee hive demo - highlighting the
importance of bees surviving in our environment and
promoting the health benefits of eating honey. This is a
demonstrative session, so this particular workshop doesn't
involve any 'Making'. Instead, participants can drop by for
the chance to see a mini hive and meet Bee Keeper Dale
Gibson and his wife, who will deliver the Honey Tasting part
of the workshop. Dale has a hive on top of the Hilton London
Bankside and is producing Bermondsey Street Honey at the
moment.
