Over the past year, something remarkable has happened. What began as a response to the closure of a single community café has grown into a wider conversation about protecting community spaces and the connections they create.
From local support to signatures from further afield, the message is clear:
People care about places where they can meet, feel welcome, and belong.
The petition has already helped bring attention to the issue in Parliament and within the community. That alone shows how powerful collective voices can be.
But the story doesn’t stop here. Community spaces are part of everyday life — places for conversation, creativity, support, and friendship.
If you believe these spaces matter, please continue sharing the petition so more voices can be heard.
Together we can keep the conversation going.
