Haringey Council
Overview
Haringey is a diverse and creative borough in north London.
It is often described as “the world in one borough”. This reflects its rich mix of people, languages, cultures, communities and local pride.
Haringey is known for its strong character. It is vibrant, bold and full of personality. It is a place where people stand up for each other and work together to shape local life.
The borough is also the London Borough of Culture for 2027. This will celebrate Haringey as the “Rebel Borough” and shine a light on its history, communities and creative spirit.
A council using the word “rebel” without sounding like a branding workshop had a meltdown? Rare. Let’s enjoy it while it lasts.
