Many Beckenham residents are dismayed to hear the news of Lewisham and Beckenham Beacon hospitals. We would like to voice our concerns to the Council. Please keep us informed of public meetings/points of contact to articulate our concerns.

Bromley council are selling off properties in Penge which could be used for Community use. The old CAB building in Snowdown Close is being sold and at the moment going to the highest bidder which will be a developer creating flats and making more parking problems in a congested area. Councillors please support Christ Central Church in our bid to use the building for community projects. We are currently providing homework clubs, football, street dancing and music and drop in for youth. We have plenty of ideas waiting to be launched. We have made a perfectly reasonable bid. Bromley Council say they are committed to the people of Bromley. How is this demonstrated here? Selling to a developer or enriching the lives of local young people and those of all ages? Health and youth crime are major problem highlighted by the fatal shooting of the young teenager outside the CAB building last year. All community facilities are being sold off. We have significant support from the local community (churchgoers or not) indicated by the hundreds who have signed the petition.
With this government introducing more measures that disadvantage the poor our contribution is vital to the health of the local community.
Local Councillors please argue the case for your community even if you are unpopular.

Dear Jon,
We have made this point many tomes to the council. We have opposedf the seeling off of community fcailtiies in Penge and tried to helpy our church with theri work. I am afraid that Bromley Tories are intent on selling off as many assetts as they can and community need does not really enter their thinking – just the cost.
