The Community Panel have updated the Society's Guidelines on ‘ORANGE SACK RECYCLING’ after consultation with the Western Riverside Recycling Centre (WRWA at Smugglers Way) and Wandsworth Council.

More good news on local air pollution: Putney Society monitoring reveals that levels of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) pollution around central Putney have fallen significantly over the last two years - a big relief, after five years of little improvement.

Even better, the biggest improvements have generally been at the sites where pollution was worst; so NO2 levels at most locations are, finally, below the UK legal limit.

A project to help young families during the pandemic has now provided over 28,000 boxes/grocery shops to the residents of Roehampton - which equates to approximately 280,000 meals. The Roehampton Community Box is a social supermarket, staffed by volunteers, where a £4 donation gives you over £40 worth of groceries. The Roehampton Community Box offers high quality-groceries including a selection of fresh fruit and vegetables for a small weekly contribution. Our customers can select their own products from the stock available.

We need volunteers to support this community led project.
