STOP Hackney Council attempting to close down Centerprise Trust Ltd

astehmari — Fri, 23 Sep 2011 22:01:20 +0000

STOP Hackney Council attempting to close down Centerprise Trust Ltd by contributing to the Centerprise Defence Fund. Donations welcomed, however, big or small to Centerprise Account no. 03401464. Sort Code: 20-66-11. Bank: Barclays Bank. Branch: May Fair

Hackney Council is attempting to stunt the growth, education, opportunities and talents of everyone especially our young people and elders by wanting to close down Centerprise Trust Community and Arts Centre in Dalston.
The Centre is in imminent danger of closure, after Hackney Council gave the 41-year old centre two weeks to cease operations and hand over the keys to the property in June 2011.
Although involved in lease negotiations the Council have disingenuously resorted to legal action to close the Centre.
The Trust’s clientele are mainly, minorities such as women, children and black and other ethnic minority communities. As the only book shop in Hackney dedicated to radical thought, there will be a democratic deficit should the Centre close, coupled with the loss of vital services to the most vulnerable in the community. Although Hackney Council has agreed to mediation, they are still committed to legal action.

Tomorrow will be too late and tomorrow never comes. Please sign our petition below to save your Centre from closure. Show your support by coming to Court 2 at Clerkenwell and Shoreditch County Court, 29-41 Gee Street, London EC1V 3RE on Friday, 20 January 2012 @ 3.00pm prompt We welcome donations to the Centerprise Defence Fund. Cllr Jonathan McShane, Hackney cabinet member for Health, Social Care and Culture. on BBC London Radio, 94.9, Dotun Adebayor’s show on Sunday, 15th January stated Hackney Council’s commitment to negotiating a new lease for our premises, yet we were served with fresh papers yesterday, 16th January to remind us of the hearing. Please spread the word by telling a friend to tell a friend.

Hearing took place at Clerkenwell and Shoreditch County Court on Friday, 20th January, 2012. The case was transferred to Central London County Court to be held in May/June 2012. We need financial support to pay enormous legal fees to fight this gross injustice. Please show your support before it is too late.

THE CENTRE NEEDS TO REMAIN OPEN
