Brixton Green
community led development

Oval House, 198 Contemporary Arts and Learning and London Printworks Trust have each been galvanised by the community-based vision of the Brixton Green initiative. It has already encouraged our three organisations to discuss new ways of working together and exploring the potential wide ranging benefits of co-location.
