Who we are and what we do
Aims and Objectives
We are a Charitable Incorporated Organisation pending registration with the Charities Commission, with the following aims :
To protect, enhance and preserve Butler’s Wharf Riverside in the interests of all its users.
In particular to :
- improve and protect the warehouse waterside aesthetic
- conserve and protect the heritage and unique industrial, physical and natural environment including preservation of the nautical sculptures
- protect the environment and encourage wildlife, with emphasis on biodiversity, and sustainability
- enhance sense of community for residents, local businesses, and visitors

Design
We think what is missing is good design. Guiding this we have been advised by some world-class professionals including Paul Zara (Senior Consultant, Conran Architects), Charlotte Harris, (Director, Harris Bugg Studio), Frances Christie (Landscape architect, REMAPP Architects & lecturer Kingston University), Jonathon Gittins, (Associate Director, Atelier Ten Architects & Illuminated River) and Anna Versteeg, (Ivanov Versteeg Architects & Hermitage Moorings).

Butler's Wharf Riverside Trust
Made up of volunteer residents and local businesses, the Trust has grown from the bottom-up to facilitate the conversation and to take all views in to account. We aim to balance the needs of all those involved in the jetty, including local stakeholders and visitors. We welcome new volunteers.
We are registered members of Community Southwark (https://communitysouthwark.org)

Councillor Hamish McCallum
Local residents, Emma Sanderson-Nash and Kathleen Hogan Ehrlich, campaigned within Shad Thames Area Management Partnership (STAMP) and Shad Thames Residents Association (STRA) to improve the Riverfront from St Saviour's Dock footbridge, to Butler's Wharf Chop House, known as 'the jetty'. They were supported throughout by Riverside Ward Councillors, including barrister Hamish McCallum. These three reflect a combination of the interests of residents, local businesses, the wider Southwark community.
