WELCOME TO THE HIGHGATE SOCIETY
We need your support
Much of our work requires close consultation with local authorities and one of our main issues we face is the regrettable and insensitive division of our community – because Highgate is a community - between a number of London boroughs: the boundary between Haringey and Camden runs right up the middle of Highgate High Street; these boroughs' southern boundary with Islington runs along Hornsey Lane, across Highgate Hill at St Joseph's church, and down the middle of Dartmouth Park Hill; everything east of Highgate golf course lies in Barnet.
To deal with these various authorities, and to make sense, for Highgate, of their often conflicting objectives and prejudices, we need skilled help – which is not lacking among our members.
But we also need all the support we can get from a sizeable membership, which has to be large enough to speak credibly for Highgate as a whole. Accordingly, we extend the warmest of welcomes not only to those who will work to help us achieve our aims and those who want to pursue leisure activities within the Society's ambit; but also to everyone who is prepared just to give their voice (and a very modest membership fee) in our support.
