The Pavilion Café, Albert Road Recreation Ground.
Come and join the party at the Pavilion Cafe for the Alexandra Park Neighbours summer get-together! Wine, soft drinks and snacks will be provided, and hot drinks can be bought at the bar. APN passed its first anniversary back in March so we’ll also hold a very short AGM near the end of the evening to discuss ideas for going forward. All members are invited!
Amongst us will be members of several local groups: Palace Gates Residents, Friends of Alexandra Park, Pinkham Way Alliance, Muswell Hill Sustainability Group, Friends of Ally Pally Station, Supporters of Alexandra Park Library, and others, so if you are interested in any of these, or would like to discuss issues with them, do come and have a chat over a drink.
