Creekside Education Trust

Who we are

Creekside Education Trust

Creekside Education Trust is a unique charity which owns and runs the Creekside Discovery Centre on the banks of Deptford Creek. We are small but we have a big impact. We are a successful wildlife conservation and environmental education charity with a vision for building a vibrant community in the heart of London where people and wildlife can thrive. We do this through:

• Habitat management of our grounds and intertidal zones, which are some of the most biodiverse areas for their size in London
• Educating adults on the value of these habitats, Deptford Creek and the local area
• A formal education programme of adventurous, hands-on learning for schools, colleges, universities
• Delivering activities for family learning
• Working with developers to improve land management in the area
• Working with volunteers who strengthen these outputs.

Our team of staff, volunteers and trustees are passionate about the work that we do. Creekside Discovery Centre is a fun and friendly place to work.
