Welcome to Noel Park Big Local

Noel Park Big Local (NPBL) began in Noel Park in 2015, organised and run by a partnership made up of local residents, with guidance from a Big Local coordinator and a local trusted organisation.

Funded by the Big Lottery fund and administered by Local Trust, Big Local is an exciting opportunity for residents in 150 areas around England to use at least £1m each to make a massive and lasting positive difference to their communities.

Our goal is to make Noel Park a better place to live for all residents by planning and delivering resident-led initiatives that address large social issues while creating opportunities for local people.

Who are we

The NPBL group is currently made up of 7 residents covering the areas of Noel Park estate, Page High and The Sandlings.

The group’s make-up is diverse, reflecting much of the social, racial, and cultural makeup of the area. Three of the four areas which make up the NPBL area are represented.

Our Values

The following points will always be taken into consideration:

  • Diversity and inclusion
  • The cultural and linguistic diversity of the area
  • The socio-economic diversity of the area
  • Improved social integration
  • Environmental sustainability
  • Projects should have a long life and become financially sustainable so they can continue beyond the life of NPBL

Our Vision

The NPBL area is shaped by Wood Green high street, one of the busiest in the UK. While on the surface this seems like it could be a good source of jobs and activities, in reality, the jobs are generally zero-hours contract jobs in budget chains.

Money made on the high road does not generally stay in the area. The high foot traffic brings crime and antisocial behaviour that take up valuable police and local authority resources.
