3:38pm: Just heard a great poetry recital about Lewisham from Sophia Wilson. She is part of the Spoken Inspired Word collective  based in Lewisham. The poem is about what it was like for her growing up in the 80’s in the borough and how Lewisham has changed. She stressed the beauty of diversity in the borough of Lewisham.

[excerpt from her poem]: “What an amazing opportunity to take an interest in each other’s ancestry. We are benefiting here from green wide open spaces, an emerging arts scene and interesting historical places…And if the dockyard could tell their own story, they would speak of love, lost hope and much glory.”by Christina Adamidou
