May 20, 25 & Beyond

Ladies, gentlemen, good people of Southgate, you are cordially invited to join us (on the dates set out above) to begin the debate, team building and democratic action now necessary for genuine, commonsense solutions to bear fruit in this lovely lovely town.

You can find out more about the concept of a Community Anchor by visiting Community Alliance

Community Anchors:
  • encourage people from different cultural and economic classes to get to know one another, united in concern for the locality they inhabit
  • ensure great participation in decision-making about local affairs
  • practise community-led solutions to social problems
  • bridge the interests and aspirations of local people and governing bodies
  • liberate the power and resources of local people
  • develop resilient community spirit
  • support individuals to fulfil their dreams
Yes, we want to build cohesion, something that brings people together to restore the community fabric. But also a new, creative movement: can we beat the beastly bureacratic machine in a skilful, artful and inspiring way - something genuinely-of-the-people to put Southgate Town & Green, Enfield N14 (and all its beautiful Hertfordshire surrounds) right up there where it belongs - on the World City map?

To request minutes from these three well attended meetings, please contact greenpeaproject@gmail.com

Follow up meetings (1) with a talk on Southgate independence by Graham Dalling and (2) regarding a Residents and Traders Association took place in mid July and are now being followed up with further action.

Following the initial May meeting we have also now printed a successful newsletter, the Southgate Phoenix, and are now moving on to our 2nd Edition..

Again for a copy of the newsletter, please email the above address.
