Events 2025

FWHP Meeting
Thursday 18th September – 7.30-9pm
Online

Why not come along to our in-person meeting this July!
Everyone welcome!


Bat Walk II
Friday 26th September – 7.15-8.30pm

If you missed our August outing, here’s another chance to join one of our popular Bat Walks in West Ham Park? Just after sunset s the best time to try and see them – although we obviously can’t guarantee they’ll turn up.
Meet by the Parks & Gardens Division Office (opposite the Playground) just before 7.15pm (the park closes at 7.30pm so do get in before the gates are locked)
NOTE the park closes at 7.30pm and you will not be able to get into the park once the gates are locked, and you will not be able to leave until the event finishes.


Newham’s Biggest Leaf Pile
Sunday 16th November – 1.3pm

This is our biggest and best – and dirtiest – event of the year!
So come along and join in!
We’ll rake up lots and lots leaves and make a HUGE leaf pile – the bigger the better! Then we’ll spend a bit of time relaxing whilst the pile is heaped ever higher by the wonderful West Ham Park Rangers and their tractor.
And then WE GET TO JUMP ON THE LEAF PILE AND HAVE LOTS OF FUN!


FWHP Meeting

Park in the Dark
Friday 5th December – 5-6.15pm

Join us on our lantern walk through the park – after dark!
And help us collect food for local Newham Food Banks at the same time!
We meet at South Gate to swap a food item for a glow stick (one per child whilst stocks last) before setting off for a guided walk through the park to the Bandstand.
We’ll be met with festive tunes from the Park Primary Choir, mince pies and warm drinks!
Please bring a torch – why not decorate it at home beforehand?
