Description
Project Update August 2024
We have set up a community resource for Newham, based in Forest Gate. We have purchased 20 gazebos for public use. These are available for hire or to borrow (depending on criteria) by any organisation or resident group in Newham. The gazebos are very high quality and sturdy and weare able to supply weights and sides if required.
Project Proposal 2023: As our community develops, we are having more outdoor events, last year we had our first Green Fair, we also had street parties, and lots of annual events. All of them needed a gazebo to protect traders and customers from rain or sun. Our proposal is for a gazebo hire / borrow resource. Gazebos are expensive to hire, and most events have only a small budget or sometimes none. Woodgrange market lent their gazebos to 12 main events last year and lots of smaller ones. Having a central resource would allow people to use up to 20 gazebos for their event. Whether you are having a small or a large event these gazebos could make an outdoor event less stressful and more enjoyable to the organizers and the customers . If the event has a budget then a small hire fee will be charged which will be used to maintain the gazebos if the event does not have a budget the gazebos can be borrowed.
Did you go to one of these events last year, then vote for this project?
