LATEST F.O.A.C. UPDATE- THE SACKINGS CONTINUE
The latest position on the Fairlop Outdoor Activity Centre is that it is still actively being closed down, despite public assurances and promises by Council Leader Jas Athwal.
The process of laying off ALL permanent and temporary staff continues.
They are deliberately neglecting the site so it will be impossible to re-open.
Next Thursday, February 25th, the council is due to approve a budget that includes an item which closes the centre to save £78k this year.
Fairlop Waters Sailing Club, as senior club on the Lake for the last 40 years, has worked constantly with the F.A.O.C. to help develop the confidence of young persons on all water craft. But they still need everyone’s help to fight the centre closure.
Our very good friends and fellow lake users The Sea Scouts have produced a really great web site at
https://fairlopwaterslake.org.uk/
which gives all the contact details of key councillors and local politicians, and has standard letters to help you get the message across. Please use them to register your anger at the closure
LET’S GET THIS PETITION WELL PAST 10,000 SIGNATURES, AND SHOW L.B.REDBRIDGE JUST HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE AGAINST THE CLOSURE
Thank you for your support- KEEP UP THE FIGHT
