Hi all,

I let you know the Lambeth Council's planning committee meeting is now suddenly happening on Tue 26 November (that's in only 8 days!). The bad news is that the planners are recommending to the Councillors that they should grant permission to the Beast of Belmore!

But we are fighting back! We're almost at 500 signatures and what's more one of our neighbours Stuart has been working wonders with the local press. You can see an article that appeared in the Wandsworth Times here: https://www.wandsworthguardian.co.uk/news/18026909.plans-nbsp-70-metre-nbsp-tower-lambeth-college-site-nbsp-opposed/ Please take a look and leave a comment on it.

Please also email the Councillors who are going to be making this decision directly. We need to make sure they know how big local opposition is to this tower block before they go into the all-important meeting. You can find their details here: https://moderngov.lambeth.gov.uk/mgCommitteeMailingList.aspx?ID=600 and if you need any ideas for what to write, have a look at one of our Twitter threads, 7 reasons to sign our petition, here: https://twitter.com/9ElmsResidents/status/1195766123071000576

If you have any further ideas of how to spread the news and make sure we get the right result Tue week, please drop us a line on Facebook or Twitter (@ElmsResidents).
