Community A community centre serving the people of Walworth since 1885.

17/06/2026

Come along to the Pop-up Walworth Living Room at the Master’s Lodge!

The Walworth Living Room (WLR) is a third community space run by Pembroke House, a charity founded by Pembroke College graduates in 1885 as part of the settlement movement, located in Walworth, South East London. The WLR is a centre for social action where we work to build neighbourhood and community power through social interactions; acknowledging its importance in connecting ‘neighbourhood to nation’.

We will have a carousel of three events inspired by some of our past and ongoing projects for everyone to participate in, these include:

🪡 ‘Mend and upcyling’ - a creative session, where you can mend, upcycle and make new items in a shared, welcoming space. Bring along any clothes, small item fixes, jewellery, collage, crochet or knitting projects that you would like to work on!

🗣️Spanish-English exchange/Español–Inglés intercambio - a relaxed and friendly language exchange session practice Spanish or English by sharing in conversation over a cup of tea or coffee. No pressure or grammar drills, just conversation and connection.

🩻Community Health Mind Mapping - an ode to the Social Model of Health, a project in collaboration with Healing Justice Ldn and Walworth residents, which is about the power of social and community connections to improve our health. Answer some questions (through any form — drawings, writing etc) about community health.

You can sign up through the link in our bio. We will be having two 45 minute sessions; the first session will be from 2pm - 2:45pm and the second session will be from 3:15pm - 4pm.

We have limited tickets so sign up quickly to reserve a spot!

See you soon! Whilst you wait, please have a look at some of the photos of the Walworth Living Room that we all know and love 🧡

On Saturday 16th May, we opened our doors to celebrate ‘Becoming Neighbours: Stories of the Pembroke House Residency’ - a heritage project funded by 🏡

Over the past year, the project has explored connection: reconnecting with former residential volunteers who lived and volunteered in Walworth, collecting their stories with community researchers, and bringing local residents together through dinner table discussions about the past, present, and future of the Residency.

The Open House shared these stories through an audio and visual exhibition across Pembroke House and the Residency, alongside a panel discussion with the project team reflecting on key themes and future plans.

We also launched our publication which includes quotes, essays and reflections on our Residency and communal living

A huge thank you to , The National Lottery Heritage Fund, and National Lottery players for making this project possible 💛

As long-standing members of .uk on Wednesday 22nd April we were excited to take part in the Southwark assembly at All Saints Peckham. We were a part of a coalition of hundreds of community leaders who came together to make specific asks of the leaders of the three biggest political parties in Southwark.

Wednesday’s event wasn’t the start of the work - over the past four months Southwark Citizens have spoken to over 700 members, bringing together people from across our diverse community, and from different organisations.

As part of this process, we held a workshop at the Walworth Living Room in March to narrow down the challenges we heard into specific asks - and discussed our proposals with Council officers, NHS allies, and others to ensure they were realistic.

The asks were split into themes on Housing, ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages), Work and Wages, Young People and Health.

Particularly relevant locally was the following ask: ‘Pilot improvements, repairs and maintenance in a block at the Aylesbury estate, working with health partners, King’s College London and Southwark Citizens to monitor impact on health and wellbeing.’

We look forward to supporting Southwark Citizens to hold politicians to account to deliver on badly needed repairs on the Aylesbury.

For the past few months, ‘Dish and Tell’ has been happening at the Walworth Living Room 🍲

Dish & Tell is a series of community workshops celebrating food, memories, and being together.

People are invited to cook some family-favourite winter recipes: warm soups, hearty casseroles, and comforting dishes that bring people together. As we cook, we’ll share stories, laughter, and the memories that make these meals so special and afterwards we all sit down to share the meal together.

This happens every Thursday at the Walworth Living Room from 12:30-2:30pm
