Community

We’re proud to support the people, groups and organisations doing brilliant things across North London. Whether you're looking to run a community event or explore partnership opportunities, here’s everything you need to know.

f you’re a local community group, CIC or non-profit operating near the centre and would like to use mall, unit or outdoor space for an event or activity, please get in touch with us at:

community@brentcross.co.uk

We receive a high number of requests, and while we’d love to support everyone, we can only say yes to a few. When we can help, we look for activity that’s engaging, interactive and adds something meaningful to the visitor experience.

We prioritise requests where:

There’s a clear community need

The activity is more than just a static collection or sign-up

It creates a reason for people to stop, take part and connect

Please note:

We’re currently unable to accept any further requests for mall, unit or outdoor space until January 2026 due to existing commitments.

We’re also unable to donate gift cards for raffles, prize draws or fundraisers.

Each year, we partner with local organisations through the Brent Cross Community Bursary Scheme. This isn’t just a donation – it’s a full partnership.

Each selected organisation receives:

- A £5,000 bursary

- Opportunities to use space in the centre

- Support with awareness, events and fundraising

- Colleague engagement through volunteering and support

Our current partner for 2025–2026 is:

1. 1625 Independent People — preventing homelessness among young people
2. Hope Against Suicide — compassionate mental health support across Bristol

Together, these organisations are making a real difference in Birmingham – and we’re proud to play a part in supporting their work.
