LCCC unanimously supports Save London Rd Church campaign‘s aim of a community buy-out to provide amenities for the local area. Details of the campaign are on its Facebook page, but in brief, they aim to repurpose the building as a hub for the local community. Suggested uses include:
- a meeting space
- personal fitness (exercise classes, yoga, etc)
- dance and sport
- community groups (scouts, guides, brownies, knitting, cards, model railway, dolls houses
- a home for local welfare services
- community cinema
- theatre, music
- exhibiting art and crafts
- an overnight shelter during some of the winter period for homeless people
- a polling station for local elections
These activities all fall well within LCCC’s aims to represent and support its community, so LCCC is very happy to support this campaign.
