Community Facilities campaign
Labour persists with the campaign to find community facilities in North Kilburn as crime rate increases around the Brondesbury Residents/Tenants (BRAT) area, north of Willesden Lane. Residents in Dunster Gardens are asking for a joint solution to anti-social behaviour. Cllr Mary Arnold is calling for a partnership meeting (neighbourhood police and borough commander, BHP, PCHA, Children and Families/Youth Services/Youth offending) in order to arrive at an integrated approach to the problems of organised crime and bored youngsters without youth programmes or direction.
In related news, the Scout Hut up for sale after scandalous time it has taken to get the Scout Association to clear the site. Local developer making an offer but Planners say he must either prove there is no market for community use or contribute towards reproviding facilities for the community elsewhere in the area.
Join the campaign for facilities in North Kilburn for young people, families, community organisations and their meetings and projects. Kilburn is creative but lacks a creative space!
