Grove Park Carnival & Chinbrook Dog Show

Hi,

we’re part of the volunteer team that organises Grove Park Carnival and Chinbrook Dog Show. Not only is this annual community event one of the highlights of the year locally, it is also a key fundraising event in support of the amazingly dedicated London Search and Rescue team.

We desperately need your help to make it possible to host this popular event in 2024. We’re hoping to bring all the fun of the carnival back to Chinbrook Meadows on Sunday September the first. The organising committee donate all their time for free… but the event is far from free to hold. We have community workshops to fund, as well as licenses, equipment, toilets, security, performers, materials and hire costs to pay

This year more than any other we have seen funding opportunities drying up, with many grants we have relied on in the past simply no longer available. We’re facing a very real possibility of not being able to hold the carnival again.

If you enjoy this fixture of the Grove Park Year - the last hoorah of the summer, and a chance for all the community to get together for a dog show, market and carnival, please consider donating and sharing this crowd funding page. Every donation no matter the size will help.

Do you know a business who could help sponsor the event? Or have a genius idea to help our fundraising? Please get in touch with [email redacted].uk

We love our Carnival and Dog Show, we know how much our neighbours enjoy it and we’ll fight to keep it running and to keep on supporting the amazing Search and Rescue Team, but we need help.

thank you,

Victoria & Frog
