The Brent Cross South Community Fund is back for a second year offering up to £3,000 to help local initiatives around the Brent Cross South area.

Right now, communities around the world are pulling together to support, empower and uplift each other through truly challenging times. 

To celebrate and amplify the positive actions  being taken in our own neighbourhood by charities, residents’ associations, small groups of neighbours, and everything in between, the Brent Cross South Community Fund this year will prioritise applications that are responding to Coronavirus.

This could be adapting existing services, launching new community-focused initiatives, or bringing your community together as we begin to recover. Local groups that build community networks, promote personal and community wellbeing, or celebrate the various communities around BXS are all invited to apply.

Brent Cross South Limited Partnership (BXS LP) is a joint venture between Argent Related and Barnet Council to regenerate the area known as Brent Cross South. BXS is committed to ensuring the development brings tangible benefits to local people, communities and businesses throughout the regeneration process and beyond.

Some funded projects from 2019

  • And image of children playing, text reads: Apache Kid's Club, a Friday after-school kids club which provides crafts and games activities for children aged between 6 and 14. The club offers free activities and crafts and is now at maximum capacity. It also works wonders in bringing children away from televisions and devices
  • A new mural in Cricklewood was designed by the community with a local artist to celebrate their local history. This transformed a forgotten passageway and encouraged residents and neighbours who had not previously met to engage with one another.
  • A children’s play area was designed and built at the back of Childs Hill Library. Natasha Woolf who worked on the project said "We have achieved a safe area for children to play in as many don’t have anywhere else to go and this has given parents additional confidence while their children are outdoors. The play area has also increased the facilities on offer at the Library."”
