The residents TRA would like to take this on, but there are not enough volunteers ready to help and that leaves just two of us to do the work. One is disabled and the other a pensioner.
This is a terrible problem; no-one wants to commit these days to help with anything. It's a real shame because we are losing so many facilities that we used to have because of the general apathy everywhere.
Unfortunately we have the same problems on Thames View with different things we try to do.
Yesterday some stupid little oik tried to set the empty club alight. It hasn't,t been shut three weeks yet. What is the matter with them. We are trying to get it opened as a youth club and community centre, and they are trying to destroy it. However we have a name and the police are helping us, so hopefully they will catch him, or her.
Makes you wonder how brain dead they are .people try to do good on the estate for them but they have no respect just want to destroy everything.its such a shame
Last night some stupid people set fire to the old social club, and this time I hear they succeeded in doing a lot of damage. This now means that there will be no community centre, no youth club, and no more events for the estate.
To say we are angry is an understatement. You try to do something for the estate, and some parents complain that there is nothing for the kids to do. Well now they will have nothing, so all those complainers can just shut up. It wasn't our decision to burn the place down. I hope they catch the score who did it, and lock him up for a long time.
The building is structurally sound and the Residents and Friends are collaborating to get a new, bigger and better community , sport and social centre, which is fit for purpose for all ages, off the ground.
All of you who believe in Scrattons PLEASE, attend the public meeting at Castle Green, (Jo Richardson School) at 7.30 pm Tuesday 7th August. The meeting is with the Council and we wish to demonstrate public support for our community.
Thank you so much Colin. Meeting went well and we are all feeling buoyant about the future of our community. Really helps to know we have friends and supporters such as yourself. With my kindest regards and many thanks. Kathy
