The
East Barnet Residents' Association welcomes everyone who has an interest
in the East Barnet area. We have no connection with
any other organisation and membership is open to all religions, races, political
views, social and ethnic backgrounds, everyone.
The Association was formed in 1982 when a group of mums were horrified to learn of plans to develop the Church Hill Farm green space (also known as The Saxon Field). Since then we have successfully challenged plans for a floodlit golf driving range and clubhouse on Pymmes Brook's floodplain in Oakhill Park, and have gained many significant improvements to the local area. More recently we have helped to keep Post Offices open and reject plans for mobile phone masts.
We have a solid following of about 500 households of like minded folk who care about what goes on in the area. The committee always looks at all planning proposals in the area and takes part in many local consultative forums. The President is Richard Watson, Rector of St Mary's Church.

In return you'll receive our regular newsletters hot off the press long before they are posted publicly on this website. For just £2 per household per year it's a great way of keeping in touch with local issues and swapping information.
Please let your friends and neighbours know, so that more people can be involved in the Association.
