We make a village.
1,000 years of history.
The Walthamstow Village Residents’ Association is a local community group, drawn mostly, but not exclusively, from residents of the two Conservation Areas making up Walthamstow Village.
Our mission:
To help make the village a great place to live, work and visit.
Who can join?
Anyone who visits, lives or works in the area.

V17 Jumble Trail
Sun 8 Sept, 12-4pm
Join us for a day of treasure hunting and community fun! The Jumble Trail is a unique event where local residents set up stalls outside their homes and sell their pre-loved items. It's a great opportunity to find unique items, grab a bargain, and meet new people.
Expect to find everything from vintage clothing to handmade crafts, books, toys, and more. There's something for everyone at the Jumble Trail, and it's a great way to support local businesses and reduce waste.
Follow our on-line map to guide you through your treasure - V17VillageJumbleTrailMap
It’s FREE to attend, stallholders are asked to purchase tickets for £6 (+ £0.56 admin fee). This goes towards organising and promoting the event as well as raising funds for V17's local improvement works.
Shop local & save!
Bringing your custom to nearby businesses supports our local economy and makes Walthamstow Village lively and vibrant.
