Citygate's survey closes Monday 5pm: read this before you answer

Thank you for signing. This petition is now looked after by Friends of Beckenham Cinema, the residents' group that nominated the cinema as an Asset of Community Value on 5 October.

Here is something you can do this week.

Citygate Church, which now owns the Odeon, is asking residents what they think of its plans for the building. The survey has four questions, takes about five minutes, and closes at 5pm on Monday 12 October.

We're taking part, openly and courteously, and we'd encourage you to do the same. Please read our short guide first. Each answer locks when you press Next, and one of the questions deserves a second look before you tick a box.

Citygate is also holding a drop-in this Saturday, 10 October, from 10am to 2pm at 22 Rectory Road. Come as a resident, ask your questions, be courteous.

The survey is Citygate's own and is separate from the council's planning process. The moment that matters most is still to come: the day the planning application goes in. To hear from us that day, with a guide to writing a comment that counts, leave your email in the sign-up box at the foot of the guide page.
