Friends of Markfield Park

About us

We are a group of local people working to improve and protect Markfield Park.

The group has not been in existence long but has already helped win funding for the major programme of improvements that is currently under way in the park. Our input has helped to make the plans better suited to the needs of local residents and other park users, and we intend to play an active role in turning those plans into reality over the next few months and years. Our aim is to turn Markfield Park into the best small park in Haringey, a place that attracts not just local people but also those from surrounding areas.

We are a small independent group; membership is free and open to all. Most of our members are local residents but there are a few others who work in or near to the park. We work closely with Haringey Council, the British Trust of Conservation Volunteers, the Markfield Project, the Markfield Beam Engine Museum, Gladesmore Community School and other community groups.

You don’t have to be a member to attend our meetings, which take place on a monthly basis at Gladesmore Community School. The dates of meetings can be found on the diary page.

We need more people to get involved in looking after the park. Come along to find out more and play your part in improving the park and supporting the community that uses it.
