As part of Mental Health Awareness Week 13-19th May, Mr Greenacres is planning a slide show Wed 15th at Friern Barnet Library and a walk, Sun 19th May, meeting outside Friern Barnet Community Library, N11 3DS 12.30pm. All welcome.
As well as the above slideshow, Mr Greenacres will also be showing the latest in our series of slide show presentations. If you thought you knew Finchley, think again, this armchair tour will take you to places you may not know existed - all on your own doorstep. This presentation will focus on buildings and spaces in or around our town centres without venturing too far off the beaten track but never fear, there are still treasures to discover.
The presentation will take place Saturday 25th May, 2pm at Trinity Church Centre as part of the Trinity in May Festival. Each event will look at different locations, the primary purpose to show good walking routes.

The Future of Transport in Finchley
PRESENTS
The Future of Transport in Finchley
Thursday 21st March
2013 at 7-30pm
Avenue House, 17 East End Road, N3 3QE
Join us for a Future
Of Transport In Finchley discussion evening at Avenue House. We have
invited a panel of experts to field your questions and stimulate a lively
debate on all aspects of local travel. The motor car is often regarded as an
indispensable accoutrement of modern living. But is it so absolutely necessary?
And what is the true cost? We now have 150,000 cars in the borough, more than
10 times the number we had 50 years ago. Our once practically empty roads are
now jam packed and fume filled, pollution is at dangerously high levels and
priority has been given to motor traffic at all costs. As roads have expanded,
greenery has disappeared.
But what about
more sustainable forms of transport? Are we here in Finchley doing enough? Have
we joined the Mayor’s ‘Cycling
Revolution‘?
Could we be walking more? What about new technology like electric cars and
hydrogen fuel cells? Are we planning a public transport infrastructure for
future generations? Is the Council doing enough for sustainable future
transport? If you have any views or questions, please come along for what
promises to be an interesting and stimulating discussion evening. Please submit
questions in writing by March 15th.

Our Barnet - Not "One Barnet" Torch Relay Festival and Parade
Saturday 21 July
Cyclists, bands, fun – come on foot, come on your bike,
come in your wheelchair and pram, and bring your neighbours
TO MAKE OUR STAND CLEAR:
Against privatisation of our public services
For protecting our local economy, Barnet residents' jobs and local traders
For revival of our high streets that were hit hard by recent parking policies
For supporting good quality of life and services for vulnerable people
Against cuts and unreasonable hikes in charges for services
We invite you to join the community in a parade from the closed Friern Barnet Library, via the about-to-be-closed North Finchley library, through the hard hit North Finchley High Road and on to Victoria Park, one of the local parks threatened with exclusive private events hire.
10:30 for 11 start – Friern Barnet library, Friern Barnet Road
11:30 North Finchley library, Ravensdale Avenue opposite High Road's Sainsbury N12: March through our threatened High Road to support local traders
12:00 Tally Ho Corner

Let us tell councillors loudly and clearly:
WE DON'T WANT YOUR “ONE BARNET” PROGRAMME!
