Shaping Wood Green Summit
Continuing the conversation on Wood Green
Thank you to everyone who came along to the Shaping Wood Green summit.
More than 100 proud and passionate residents, partners, stakeholders, officers and councillors joined Leader Cllr Peray Ahmet and Cabinet Member Cllr Ruth Gordon and Cllr Emily Arkell at the summit.
It was an evening of creative and collaborative discussions on how to take Wood Green to the next level. Participants enjoyed amazing performances from The Rec Shop, a charity and multi-purpose music space based inside The Mall, Wood Green.
A showcase of local events and activities were featured around the room.

- north London’s town centre for all
- putting the green in Wood Green
- living well
- an economy to benefit everyone
The council is committed to creating meaningful opportunities for all the community to participate and share their thoughts on the issues that matter to them. By asking the right questions, listening to and building on what we have heard through previous engagement exercises, in partnership we will make change happen.
