Wombles Down Under Fanzine is celebrating its 40th birthday and are featured with an interview with John Lynch.

We talk about the work Wish does and how the charity came about.

In our seven year history we’ve created a museum (twice due to flooding), currently hold an estimated £1.5 million in artefacts and remain entirely volunteer run without expenses.

If you’d like to get involved please get in touch. We’re always looking for enthusiastic volunteers 💛💙

Yesterday was Sporting Heritage day and it’s a topic we’re passionate about. Wimbledon has always been an incredible sporting hub from Speedway, greyhound racing, banger racing, rugby, tennis and of course football. 💛💙

Our volunteers all work tirelessly to keep this heritage alive and we’re especially proud of the Club Museum at Plough Lane.
