Working with young people in the Park
FoBP have linked with the REACH project and Younger Community Service Workers to develop projects within the Growing Space, Wildlife Pond and Wild Flower Gardens in Broomfield Park.
We are working on Saturday mornings with Community Service Workers and all day on Wednesdays for the next two months with 13 to 14yr olds in the REACH Project. This is a programme run by Enfield Council Behaviour Support Service that provides an intervention to help prevent exclusion from school or alternative provision of education. Their aims are to:
- Make an impact on changing and modifying behaviours and attitudes towards learning beyond their time at school.
- Enable the learner to achieve a sense of success and pride within the curriculum offered.
- Develop the learners’ social, emotional and behavioural skills.
- Introduce learners to new skills and opportunities that they may not have been involved in previously.

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
