John Higgins, who manages the Community Prize for the Association says, “This could be anything from the regeneration of a derelict garden, the organising of a local art exhibition or creating a five-a-side football league. We are asking local organizations to feel free to explore any relevant avenue and to make allowances for imagination.”
In congratulating the Brook Green Association on the new Community Prize, Bective Leslie Marsh’s Managing Director, Peter Rickenberg, said, “We’ve had a strong presence in Brook Green for many decades and have come to know many local residents who support the Brook Green Association and their wonderful activities. We are delighted to build on this support through this exciting new initiative.”
The Brook Green Association is a charitable, non-political organization aiming to preserve and enhance the character of the area while fostering a sense of community among residents. Bective Leslie Marsh has six offices in Central and West London for sales and lettings including 59 Blythe Road where Justin Knight and his Sales and Lettings team are on 0207 603 5181.
