[ Press releases listing ](/about-us/about-us/haringey-news " Press releases listing") 06 Feb. 2019 ## Mayor of London visits Recycling Fund for Communities project One of the projects we supported through our Recycling Fund for Communities received a visit from the Mayor of London on Monday 4th February 2019, as he launched #CrowdfundLondon 2019. Located adjacent to our Haringey Facility, Tottenham's Cafe Connect turned a disused bowling club into a thriving community hub, with members of our Haringey team also volunteering their time to help clear the land and bring the project to life. Thanks to local backing - including from Veolia - the project is now able to build a new outdoor area, so that more of the community can be welcomed into a safe space, learning about the environment and encouraging social inclusion. > *“With Veolia's support we bring together and reunite communities to think globally and act locally, creating a cleaner environment for tomorrow”* - Leyla Laksari, Cafe Connect, Tottenham For more information about our Recycling Fund for Communities or to apply, visit: ![Mayor visiting Cafe Connect](/sites/g/files/dvc1811/files/styles/default/public/image/2019/02/IMG_4316.JPG.webp?itok=nEfcaruB) Mayor of London visiting Tottenham's Cafe Connect
