Photo Afternnon

Saturday 11th July 2:00pm

We are holding a photography afternoon on Saturday July 11th in the rec to meet up and walk around  taking photos of scenes in the rec  that we think best express how we feel about the rec. Our favourite  ones will go towards an exhibition called The Essence of the Rec to  be held as part of the Lordship Rec festival on September 12th.

We will meet at 2pm at the gate to the rec nearest to the Broadwater  Centre on Adams Road/Freedom Road and go off from there around the rec.

If you are feeling creative, then do come along.

Invitation to all local community groups

Once again the Lordship Rec Users Forum is organising its annual community festival and we’re inviting you and your members to get involved! Last year 3,000 people attended and participated (see below for a report). The festival is a key part of the ongoing efforts to showcase the potential of the park, encourage greater usage, continue to develop community-led partnership working, and to pursue the regeneration of Tottenham’s largest green open space.

On Sunday 19th July 2009, The Big Lunch (an Eden Project initiative) is inviting 61 million people across the UK to simultaneously sit down to eat lunch with their neighbours, as a simple act of community.

The aim is to give people the tools to strengthen their communities through activities such as neighbourhood-watch; improving local amenities, taking care of the elderly or disabled; making imaginative improvements to the local environment and sharing resources. 

Haringey Council (Neighbourhood Management) is facilitating a Big Lunch on the green space of the Broadwater Farm Community Centre.  You, and members of your group, are warmly invited.

Woodland Work-In in Lordship Rec

Sunday 31st May
2pm – 4pm @ the Woodland by Downhills Park Rd

Please come in your millions with wheelbarrows, buckets, shovels and secateurs!!!!

The Friends are holding another work-in to add more woodchip to the ‘middle’ path through the woods. This should complete all the paths and so we won’t need to do it again for another year. We also need to cut back the dense dogwood bushes to open up sightlines.

We’re hoping that many members and others will come along and help. Please, if you can, bring spades/wheelbarrows/buckets/gloves/secateurs etc.

All welcome!
