About us
Who we are
The Friends of Windmill Gardens is a local residents’ group set up in 2003 to campaign to restore, preserve and enhance Brixton Windmill and Windmill Gardens.
We were first registered as a charity in 2007 and in 2018 were re-established as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (1176991), with the following aims:
- to support the restoration, preservation and continued use of the Grade II* listed windmill
- to build a unique education facility for schools and the local community that will put the windmill and its history into context
- to enhance the park by creating a green oasis to benefit local residents – adults, young people and children – and attract visitors and windmill enthusiasts from further afield
- to provide community events that bring local people together to celebrate and enjoy this unique historic building and open space.
