Become a Friend of Cooking Champions today!
While we admire and support the Christmas campaigns that we see pop up in December, we also know that help is urgently needed all year round, each and every year. As some people pack away after the festive break, we are still here.
Our support is not limited to a food package, but it leaps beyond - we form connections, we listen and respond to everyone who steps through our doors. We open up a warm, safe, environment which aims to feel like a home away from home.
For us to continue to thrive and grow, and keep supporting as many people as possible, we are asking you to become a Friend of Cooking Champions. Even a donation of just £5-10 per month can make a HUGE impact on the lives of those who come through our doors.
Pop to our People's Fundraising page to donate, and we promise to keep you updated with how your support is making a difference. Thank you, we appreciate you! Team Cooking Champions

23 Apr 2024 If you've been following Karl's posts about the Palmers Green ward panel (aka CAPE) and the types of crime (eg shoplifting) and anti-social behaviour that are prevalent here, plus the problems encountered not far away with car meets racing along roads or in superstore car parks, then this BBC Radio 4 discussion will be of interest, as it brings together[…]

15 Apr 2024 As of Monday 29th April a school street will be in operation during school arrival and departure times in the section of Highworth Road adjacent to Bowes Primary School.

7 Apr 2024 The Make Space for Girls Broomfield Park project is recruiting local girls, young women and non-binary teens to take part in a series of workshops starting this month aimed at teasing out what it is that deters them from using the park as a social space for 'hanging out'.

But the highlight of the afternoon was the presentation of a Pub of the Year award by the local branch of the[…]
29 Mar 2024 Since it closed for repairs and redecoration several months ago, we've been waiting impatiently for one of the glories of Palmers Green to shrug off its plastic cocoon and reveal itself to visitors to Broomfield Park. But we're going to have to wait a little bit longer...

23 Mar 2024 The 20's Plenty for Us campaign has published its response to recently issued government guidance on setting local speed limits, accusing the Department for Transport of misrepresenting data on pedestrian fatalities when hit by a vehicle travelling at speeds between 20 and 30mph.
