Women and girls invited to share
views on making Redbridge safer
Forest walk ‘on the edge’:
the changing face of Snaresbrook
Mysterious boundary markers in the
forest will be discussed on the walk
Women and girls in Redbridge are invited to
attend a virtual ‘listening event’ to share their
thoughts on what they want and need to
feel safe. “The aim is to provide local women
and girls with a comfortable space to share
their experiences and their views on how our
borough can be made safer, for example by
identifying areas that need to be better lit or
pathways that feel unsafe to walk along,” said a
spokesperson for Redbridge Council, which is
hosting the sessions on 2 June at 7.30pm and
9 June at 5.30pm. Visit wnstd.com/listen
The Epping Forest Heritage Trust will host
a free guided walk around Snaresbrook on
27 June. “Snaresbrook has always been ‘on the
edge’: of the forest, of Wanstead, and even
now, on the boundary of Waltham Forest and
Redbridge… This walk has two themes: water
and transport, both important in explaining
why people moved to Snaresbrook in the 18th
century,” said historian Lynn Haseldine-Jones,
who will lead the two-hour tour, departing
from Snaresbrook Road car park at 10.30am
(booking required). Visit wnstd.com/sbk
