Team London Bridge

A new community garden on Newcomen Street took shape in March 2026. As an important gateway into London Bridge and Guy’s Hospital, the street now provides a more welcoming environment for patients, workers and, importantly, the nurses who live above it.

Volunteers from across our community, including neighbouring Guy’s staff, helped transform a neglected patch of land under the guidance of Team London Bridge’s gardening team, managed by Oriana’s Gardens.

The volunteers cleared weeds, digging in fresh soil and planting a range of shade-tolerant, climate change-resilient plants, including a specially chosen selection with historical connections to medicine and pharmacy.
