Save Our Live Music In the Park Funding

It has come to our attention that funding for the free live music events held on the Bandstands at Broomfield Park and Hilly Fields Park are under threat and may be withdrawn in 2011. These events are organised by local voluntary groups on a non-profit basis to encourage people to use and enjoy the parks which is directly in line with the new Parks & Open Strategy.

They provide the local community with access to free family friendly entertainment that may be enjoyed by all ages in a safe environment. In todays climate, these events provide a sorely needed 'feel good' factor and many promote awareness of local charities which are important to the whole community.

We the undersigned request that Enfield Council do not withdraw the existing funding or endeavor to find alternative funding for the annual live music events at Broomfield Park in August organised by Electric Blues Club and at Hilly Fields Park organised by the Friends of Hilly Fields during the summer.
