Joyslide update

Great news! Our plan for a new joyslide for the 21st century has been granted planning permission by Southwark Council.

Southwark News this week has a story about the Joyslide, 'Ancestor of Man Responsible for Bermondsey Joyslide is bringing it back almost a century later', which you can view here

We are so grateful to architect, Fergus Carr (right), who has give so much time, energy, and creativity to this project.

Fergus is the great great grandson of Arthur Carr, chairman of Peek Freans biscuits, who was the orginator of the first joy slide.

Fund raising efforts continue for the slide. You can find out more about the project and how you can support it here
