The Friends of Market Place Playground were crucial in leading the project to make the new Market Place Playground in East Finchley a reality.
We are forever grateful to them: barnet.gov.uk/news/new-playg…
We hope local people can enjoy this green oasis for many years to come!

Work will take place between 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday. The work is likely to continue until the summer, as the space is having a complete refurbishment. The playground will be closed and fenced off whilst the work takes place. 2/3

An incoming Labour Government will get a grip on children missing school, prioritising child mental health with a mental health professional in each school, while delivering high and rising standards across all schools. Read👇🏻
