140th birthday party for Noel Park Estate is a great success

With support from the Equans team, crowds of local residents joined to celebrate the 140th birthday party for the Noel Park Estate.

Equans' Social Value Manager, Mark Bush was pleased to support local community group, Noel Park Big Local in organising the birthday celebrations and on Sunday 16th July, local residents came together to celebrate 140 years since the official opening of the estate in 1883.

The celebration which was held at Russell Park was a free one day festival to provide local residents with a family day including live music, food activities and of course a celebration of the past and future of Noel Park. The festival also featured an inflatable games area, information village, a mini olympics for young people as well as community leaders and community stalls.

As well as Equans staff volunteering their time on the day, prior to the event, Equans also provided Emergency First Aid training for volunteers attending the festival.

"Thanks for everyone's help on the day, it was a great event for the community to enjoy. We are currently completing works at the estate on behalf of Haringey Council and we're pleased to support local community projects as part of our social value offer." Mark Bush, Social Value Manager at Equans
