AGM - Tuesday 12th January 2021 - 7pm

Join us for our AGM - hear what happened in the Wood in 2020 and help plan what will happen in 2021.

We should have a representative from Barnet Council to brief us on the latest with the kiosk and tennis courts. We will also update people on works going ahead using the Community Infrastructure Grant money that we were awarded during the year.
