Money for Harringay 'Food Festival' - excellent. Let's hope the restaurants & shops get the concept more clearly this September. Seeing rows & rows of 1 litre tetrapak juice last time was hardly inspiring! The music was great though.

If that stall with half-a-dozen Pot Noodles puts out a dozen this time - we can always blame Hugh & Boris ?

As far as I understand it, bids were judged on the quality of the submissions. If you look at the other successful bids, it seems that need was not a key criterion.

Although to be fair Tottenham High Road has managed to attract funding in the past and will probably do so again through its status as a conservation area.
Harringay's Green Lanes has often failed in bids in the past as it's not a conservation area and doesn't qualify for funding on heritage grounds.
This is very good news, without this support from Boris, it would be very hard to run the Festival this time.
Well done to everyone involved, I know this takes a lot of work to get right... (and let's hope that Tammy and others work in Wood Green brings in the funds next time).

Well done Hugh and every one that have been involved in this bid. Although you just gave the idea, it is that idea that are lacking in some community.
This is great and i believe that Harringay will have a face lift during the festivals and beyond.
