We have many council stalls at Royal Greenwich Together 21, take a look at what's in store:
Greenwich Info
We want to make sure Greenwich Info is giving you everything you need, so come down to chat to us about how we can make it better.
It's a fortnightly print publication that's delivered to the majority of households in the Royal Borough of Greenwich, and you can also read it online. You can pick up a copy at more than 50 locations across Royal Greenwich including local libraries, leisure centres and community centres.
Greenwich Info keeps Royal Greenwich residents up to date with events, local jobs and how to access the hundreds of services that the council provides.

Big Conversation
At ‘The Big Conversation’ tent we will be looking to get your views to help us define a new vision for the Borough in the wake of COVID-19. There will be interactive boards where you will be able to provide your views and ideas on a range of topics.
Street services
The Waste and Streets Advisor team stall will be there to answer any questions around waste and recycling. Visit the stall to find out how to get recycling right and reduce your plastic waste with sustainable solutions.
