Newham Green Fair

This year's Green Fair is taking place on Sunday 7th June during the Great Big Green Week at Forest Lane Park.

Sustainable Newham exists to provide coordination and support to people and organisations in Newham who are actively running or planning environmental or sustainability projects.

On 1 May 2023, Sustainable Newham hosted the first Green Fair in Newham.

​Over 50 community activists and groups, voluntary organisations, musicians, artists, small traders and local businesses came together to showcase initiatives, projects, organisations and businesses that help protect and enhance the environment, create a sustainable community and contribute to social, economic and environmental justice locally and globally. It was a fun day out for 1,500 people who shared an interest in green issues. They enjoyed workshops and stalls, information and entertainment, food and inspirational talks. Check out some of the photos and videos of talks on the gallery pages.

On 5th May 2025 Sustainable Newham held our third annual Green Fair with over 90 organisations and nearly 2,000 visitors. ​​

Newham u3a will be hosting a stall to showcase all that we have to offer. Please save the date in your diary. We are inviting volunteers to help staff the stall in half-hour or one-hour slots. The best ambassadors for Newham u3a are always our own members, sharing their enjoyment and experience with others.
