Volunteering in your local park is a great way to meet likeminded people, keep fit, and make a meaningful contribution to your local community. Volunteering in parks varies between groups, many help by reporting any problems in parks to council officers, some carry out wildlife conservation tasks, and others organising litter picks to keep their local park clean.

The road running through Hendon Central, roughly in line with the Watford Way, was called Butchers Lane. Where St John's School now stands was Paddock Farm and further up, near the top of Station Road, was Burroughs Farm.

Butchers Lane became Queens Road after Queen Victoria's jubilee (1887).
