We held our 2022 Permaculture Design Course at Roupell Park Estate community Centre on Brixton Hill, London. The course participants worked in groups to create designs for different areas of the estate. The following slides present a summary of the outcomes.

16 designers graduated with a Permaculture Design Certificate on the 2018 Permaculture Design Course at Loughborough Farm. We also visited venues such as Hazel Hill Woods, the Remakery, the Meadow Orchard Project and were grateful to have had guest teachers such as Linda Royles and Sam. The course was led by Michel Thill and assisted by Tish Vail and previous course participants Naomi Allen and Dre Ferdinand.

Social Landscapes worked with The Community Education Foundation, the Roupell Park Resident Management Cooperative and the Roupell Park residents themselves to come up with a design proposal for an disused green space on the estate.

Organising a Permaculture Design Course (PDC) is generally a great opportunity for a project or a community to integrate more of the Permaculture principles into their workings. This was the purpose of our full Permaculture Design Course at Tribewanted Monestevole.

Michel supported residents on Egham Road to make a more beautiful, safer and useful space. The job was a big challenge, building a 25 m long planter, shifting 12 tonnes of soil and planting 60 plants along the pavement to create a border between the grass and play area and road. With a large group of corporate volunteers and residents, the job got done in a day and brought out the neighbourhood.
