How events get featured on this site We will list all events in our calendar for free (see below for details.) If you know of an event that isn't listed let us know by sending details to editor@putneysw15.com What's on in June? For coverage on the home page of this site and our weekly newsletter which goes to over 2730+ local people send us full details of your event. First priority goes to events which are paying to be listed. Any community based non-profit events will receive prominent coverage subject to the availability of space. Commercial events can get free coverage but during busy times of the year there is often no available space. Generally events from outside the area are not listed unless there is a significant connection with Putney or Roehampton. If you are paying to promote your events in other local media don't expect a significant amount of free coverage on this site. Costs for event promotion start at £30. If an event at your favourite venue or club doesn't appear on our site just tell the organisers to get in touch with us and it will be added . For more details click here

22nd May - 7.30pm Putney Society - Care for Older People Brewer Building at St Mary's Church, Putney Bridge. As the Old Age Pensions Act was passed 100 years ago this August, the Putney Society thought it timely that there should be a focus on this sector.  We have got the new Director of Wandsworth's Adult Social Services and the Assistant Director who also covers Sensory and Physical Disability as well as representatives of the voluntary sector.  Many people complain that they do not know where to go for advice and help over concerns about an older family member, friend or neighbour.  Many of us have no idea of our rights and the choices available to us.  So come along with your questions and comments. And Bring Your Friends.
