A message from the Save Kensal Rise Library Campaign
Public Meeting Reminder!
Public Meeting Reminder!
A reminder that we are holding a public meeting at 7.30pm
on Tuesday 21st May in St Martin’s Church, Mortimer Rd, Kensal Green
(first street on the right from Kensal Green Tube as you walk up College
Rd, about 1 minute walk).
The Leader of Brent Council Cllr Muhammed Butt
will be there and local councillors and we hope that Roxanne Mashari,
the new Lead Member on the Executive responsible for Libraries will be
able to make the meeting.
Roxanne came to a meeting of SOS Brent Libraries (the
umbrella group of the campaigns attached to the closed libraries in
Brent) on Sunday and stated most strongly that she wanted to have a
dialogue with us and envisioned a partnership between the council and
our community.
It is really important to let both the Leader of the
Council and Cllr Mashari know how strongly this community feels about
the loss of our library and the importance of the Kensal Rise Library
building as a library and community space, a space that we will lose if
the building is turned into flats.
To achieve this we really do need as many of you as possible to come to the public meeting.
We are still fighting after nearly three years and they
need to know what we are fighting for and what we value in this
community.
