Wolves Lane Market Garden City

Our vision for Wolves Lane Centre is a thriving space for sustainable growing, education, social enterprise and community engagement. The Wolves Lane Consortium are in the process of developing the Wolves Lane Centre into a community hub that facilitates and serves the local community of Wood Green and the wider community of London. New buildings and landscapes are being proposed to allow the Wolves Lane Consortium to grow.

Wolves Lane Community Food Hub and Market

We secured £20,000 grant plus support (Bright Ideas fund) to develop a regular community market and to formalise a consortium structure. Together with the collaborating organisations, we wanted to use the funding to enable us to go beyond mainly operating separately as individual businesses, and maximise the benefit of working at the site together and engaging with the community it serves. Wolves Lane Community Food Hub and Community Market was funded and supported by Power to Change.

We moved into our new office on the site
