Open House
Event Information
Description
As part of Safe Ground's 21st Birthday celebrations, there will be an Open House event at our Battersea offices, on 19th July, to mark the charity's inauguration day. This will be a fantastic opportunity for the public to drop in and learn more about the organisation’s history. Hear first-hand accounts of the impact of Safe Ground’s programmes from Alumni members and delivery staff, watch film screenings from our archives, visit the pop-up gallery space where Alumni art work will be on display and attend an object handling session with Stewart McLaughlin from Wandsworth Prison Museum. Drop by at any point in the day.
