The Committee and Associates of your Aviva Fellowship, Croydon Area, organise a programme of Events for the enjoyment of Members. Here's a sample of what we've been up to in 2024.

16th August — Crystal Palace Park & Dinosaurs On a sunny summer day, 16th August, event organiser Jackie Husain met us at Crystal Palace railway station and took us for a walk around the lower part of Crystal Palace Park. Crystal Palace Park is a large park in south-east London, listed on the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens, and laid out in the 1850s as a pleasure ground. The famous dinosaur sculptures were unveiled in 1854, and have been awarded Grade I listing. The park is quite large so we just covered the bottom part this time and left the top for another walk later in the Summer. The walk was gravelly and mostly flat. We visited the small animal farm, the dinosaur sculptures around the Lower Lake, the fishing lake, the maze, the concert bowl and the sports centre.
