Here's what's going on in and around Crouch End
CROUCH END GHOST WALK
Discover the haunted history of Crouch End on this Ghost Walk around the area that The Sunday Times has voted ‘the best place to live in London’.
Over the course of 90 minutes, you'll discover how the area grew from a small rural hamlet to a prosperous Victorian suburb with a magical energy. You’ll hear tales of poltergeists, ghosts and zombies, trace the footsteps of the ‘master of horror’ himself, Stephen King and discover why Crouch End is the horror capital of London, and possibly the world!
The circular walk starts in central Crouch End at 4.30pm and finishes at 6pm, just before the switching on of Crouch End’s Christmas lights.
Ticket holders will receive details of the meet point just before the event.

DO YOU KNOW ANYBODY who would be interested in making connections and friendships?
CREATIVE CONNECTIONS is an organisation run by Kiki Machado and Gabriela Solano whose FREE weekly workshops aim to bring people of the local community together, using art and movement activities as a way of:
** Generating conversations about what the local area has to offer and how to get involved with various activities.
** Getting to know and network with other people who live and work in the area.
** Understanding each other's differences and similarities whatever your age, culture or background.
The workshops are part of the WARM WELCOME project by Haringey Council.
