Public Meeting Report

A successful and well-attended gathering took place last night at St. Mary’s Centre to update the community on our latest progress and get feedback and suggestions.

Lizzie Mickery opened the meeting and welcomed all. You can read her introduction here.

Sarah Hodgson followed with this speech and Peter Rollison gave us the financial report and update.

Lizzie then closed the meeting.

(Inbetween, Mike Harding showed some slides and photos of the new premises, highlighting the state they are in and financial investment needed to get them ship-shape.)

We will print out these texts and post them in the window of 1 Grassmere Parade soon.

Thanks to all who not only attended but also sent us good wishes if they couldn’t attend. Its heart-warming to know the community is alongside us.
