Brent Cross coalition
The Coalition for a Sustainable Brent Cross Cricklewood Redevelopment is campaigning to change Barnet council's current 'regeneration' scheme for the Brent Cross Cricklewood area. Barnet TUC has joined the coalition; visit its website: http://brentcrosscoalition.blogspot.com/
 
Defend Montrose Park campaign
Local campaigners are worried that the Council is contemplating putting a road through Montrose Park in Burnt Oak ward. This would destroy a much-needed green space in a heavily populated area. The campaign to raise awareness and to defend the park is being co-ordinated by Pattie Skeats of the Watling Festival. Contact: festival@waitrose.com
