Planning for our Future

Maurice Diamond, our new Chairman, wants to let the community know about his plans for the future of the community.

 

There will be a number of working teams set up to look into how we do things at CNSS and how we might do things differently in the future. The core of each team will be members who are already involved in a particular activity. For example, the Wardens Team will be led by Richard Silver as the HO Warden and will comprise volunteer wardens from Hadley Wood, Cockfosters and Southgate.

There will be a Children and Youth Team which will comprise those who are currently involved in activities and services for children and youth.


And Simon Goulden is setting up the Southgate 2020 Project - this project will be all about supplying the right services in the right time for the right cost to the community. The project will be examining the demographics of the community and looking into a number of potential options for the future.
