Summer 2013

One Year On

The Summer edition of The River marks the end of our first year in print and we are expanding in team members by the day.

Chloe and Jack who joined us as writers are now sub-editing with us and we are reaching further afield to give the readers of this edition a glimpse of all the great stuff happening on the SE1 boarders this Summer.

As ‘Charles Dickens’ said to the readers of his magazine ‘Household Words,’
“We seek to bring into innumerable homes, from the stirring World around us, the knowledge of many social wonders.”

Wishing you a safe and happy Summer season and look forward to seeing you all at The Bermondsey Fair in August.

Yours

A Webb
