Stuart Low Trust Business Plan 2019-2023

In February 2018, SLT’s Board agreed an ambitious 3 year plan. In addition to maintaining the frequency and high quality of SLT’s present activities, 4 key areas will be the focus for the next few years:

To bring in activities for younger people.
To increase Saturday Project workshops to 52 weeks a year.
To develop, in partnership, a volunteer befriending service.
To link in more closely to GP’s and health professionals.

Camley Street Natural Park: A new partnership with London Wildlife Trust

In March 2022, SLT were delighted to partner with London Wildlife Trust, as part of our Nature Programme. SLT are running visits and guided walks to this hidden gem of natural wildlife, twice a month. Each visit focuses on a different theme each time, such as wildfowl; pond life; flora and fauna, or a woodland circle meditation. We also see how the site changes with each season and what’s new to discover. There is something for everyone to enjoy.

In May 2022, SLT partnered with National Youth Theatre to pilot a new Arts project “Material World”.

Over a course of 6 weeks, participants learned about and explored the fashion of the Jubilee years, and key moments in theatre history. Click here to view our Gallery.
