The Palmers Greenery Community Cafe has established a new partnership with Barnet and Southgate College.
From next Monday, October 7th, The community cafe will be open on Mondays, during term time, between 11am and 3pm. The new arrangement will provide young people from the college with a work experience and volunteering placement and will also give park visitors a chance to get a warming coffee ... and warmer welcome ... on Monday! The arrangement with the college means that the Palmers Greenery will be staffed on Mondays - during term time only - by students. Do pop by and say hello!

Friends of Broomfield Park were delighted to take part in The Big Draw Festival 2026, joining thousands of organisations around the world celebrating the joy, creativity and accessibility of drawing. This year’s theme, “Make a Mark”, invited everyone to explore drawing as a way of seeing, thinking and connecting — not just creating a finished picture. The event was a great success, with lots of people turning up to unleash their creativity and enjoy trying something new. CLICK TO READ MORE AND SEE PHOTOS AND VIDEO OF THE EVENT
