About us.

Friends of Bloomsbury Square is a community group dedicated to the preservation and enhancement of Bloomsbury Square, a historic garden square located in central London.

Established with the aim of bringing together local residents, workers, and visitors who share a passion for the square. Our organisation works towards maintaining its beauty and promoting its rich heritage for all to enjoy.

We are a volunteer-run organisation that depends on donations to maintain the upkeep of the square. Your support is crucial in preserving this historical green space for the community to enjoy.

We are led by a dedicated committee with Simon Oldfield at the helm. Our organization values the contributions of all individuals, from committee members to volunteers, who generously dedicate their time and skills to our cause.
