GLEE is the newly formed Golden Lane Estate Event group whose aims are to:
- raise the profile of GLEE in the local community
- improve community cohesion on Golden Lane Estate
- secure funds and help residents secure funding to provide community events
- organise medium to larger scale community events
- provide opportunities to volunteer
- reach all residents and welcome minorities
The events we are already looking to support and raise funds for include:
- Golden Lane Spring Garden Festival | April 26 – with Golden Baggers and Octopus, supported by Culture Mile BID
- GLEE Social | April 27 Sir Ralph Perring Centre 10.30 am – 12.30 pm
- The Golden Lane Book Fair | a date in June tbc
- Picnic with Music | Saturday 12 July on Basterfield lawn
- Festive Market | Sunday 30 November in the community centre
These are all events organised by residents for residents and so a really great way to meet your neighbours and feel part of the community. There will be lots of ways to help out and get involved, many requiring very small amounts of time – leafleting your house block for instance.
If you would like to become a member of GLEE just email gleeventsgroup@gmail.com or come along to our first members’ social on 27 April in the Sir Ralph Perring Centre, 10.30 -12.30. All residents welcome!
