Become Chair of the Friar Park Neighbourhood Board

Friar Park has been selected to benefit from up to £20 million through the Governments Pride in Place Programme to invest in the area over the next 10 years. To help guide this work, a Friar Park Neighbourhood Board is being set up to bring local people together and shape how this funding is used.

Applications are now open for the Chair of the Friar Park Neighbourhood Board.

The Chair will play a key role in bringing people together, supporting local voices and acting as a strong advocate for Friar Park and the Pride in Place programme.
