The Camp for Climate Action has swooped on Blackheath and and is aiming to stay there until the weekend. Protestors from the group had kept the location of their camp secret, before it was suddenly announced early this afternoon that they were heading to Greenwich.
They say on their website: “Everyone is welcome to join us, as we converge on the secret location where the camp will rise. This summer, we are swooping together, and together we will transform a part of London into the physical manifestation of our desired worlds”.
There had initially been confusion as to where they were heading with news outlets such as the Daily Telegraph and Sky News reporting that camp would be in Greenwich Park.
Since arriving at Blackheath, Climate Campers have begun setting up and posted a series of pictures to their Twitter account, seen below.
Protesters will also be ideally placed to enjoy the Funfair which has also set up at Blackheath and begins tomorrow.
Yay!
