Friends of Havering Country Park

This Wednesday, the 25th April, a meeting is being held at the North Romford Community Centre, in Clockhouse Lane, Collier Row to bring together local residents who live in Collier Row and Havering-Atte-Bower to talk about issues affecting Havering Country Park and to see about setting up a friend’s of the Park group.

The meeting has been put together by the Havering Park Safer Neighbourhood Team, under Sgt Andy Barnes and his tem of Officers. The aim of a friends group is to bring together like mined residents to support the work in the park and to raise money from external sources, something the Council can not do, unless it is supported by local residents.

It is not run by or organised by Councillors, Friends Groups can only attract outside money if is run by local residents, however any residents that joins the group will have the full support of the Collier Row & Mawneys Residents Association and our Ward Co-ordinators in making it a success.

The meeting starts at 7.30pm, I hope to see you there.
