Living Under One Sun is a community-led charity
based in the heart of Tottenham – “All equal under one sun”
Join us at the Living Under One Sun hub in Down Lane Park
and take part in some of our activities!
We actively create welcoming places to share stories, ideas and skills for people to become “can do” communities, embracing and leading positive change to include and benefit all cultures, abilities, ages and nature – in neighbourhoods and globally.
We deliver free frontline community-led projects, services, events and festivals. We run a community cafe, hub and garden at Down Lane Park. We also have a community allotment at East Hale Allotments.

NEED HELP WITH THOSE ONLINE SKILLS?
FREE one-to-one digital support at the NRC
We are living in a digital world where accessing services and information, and generally engaging with the world is done online. This is a huge barrier as we know for many people in the communities we serve.
The digital support programme has gone from strength to strength at the Neighbourhood Resource Centre (NRC) in Northumberland Park and is available for anyone wanting a helping hand to navigate all things digital!
Get Connected! runs every Tuesday from 11am – 2pm (except during half term) at the NRC, 177 Park Lane, Northumberland Park in partnership with Haringey Learns.
It’s a drop in and the team can provide one to one support and guidance either using a laptop provided, or on a device of choice (e.g. phone/tablet).

There was a sneak preview of Down Lane Park for a few members of the community design group. Phase One is opening on Friday 19th July. So much to look forward to – more trees, more hedges, wider paths, woodland areas and planting, beautiful seating and picnic area, and a fantastic new outdoor Gym. We are assured that new trees will receive care for a year and it’s expected that a very small percentage may need additional care and will be replaced if not recovered. There is an expert landscape designer and park team to ensure the best care possible. Anyone interested in joining Women and Girls running, cycling and fitness sessions, please contact Nat (local resident and coach) on sportandwellbeing@livingunderonesun.co.uk
Or you may be interested in setting up tree care or biodiversity projects, or nature based arts and activities. If so, and you want to share your experience and skills with other locals (and need a place to meet share ideas and a cuppa) please let us know by emailing us on info@livingunderonesun.co.uk
Come and learn how you can grow
your own food even if you don’t have a garden
or an allotment!
Our Cafe, Hub and Garden
Our lovely community cafe, event and garden space is the hub for all our activities and our community. Located inside popular Down Lane Park just 5 mins from Tottenham Hale station and surrounded by major developments under construction, it’s a precious community space. It is one we transformed from an unused and run-down bowling club into a vibrant and unique place which provides a welcoming and safe meeting place for all residents, existing and new. As well as running like a normal cafe, it’s the space where we host projects, classes and activities.
Community projects, services and activities
We deliver programmes to bring Nature, sports, well-being and harmony closer to communities. We bring together people and their ideas – supporting each other to improve our individual lives’, shape services and our neighbourhoods.
We have a number of projects, services and activities going on weekly – join us for sewing classes, bicycle training, English as Second Language.
Do you have an idea for an activity, project or a course you want to run for the community? Get in touch
