Hi
I am writing to all the Birmingham community blogs I can find, asking if they can put up a link to the on-line petition to save the Conservation Department, which has been started by my group, Acocks Green Focus Group – the petition, and the reasons why it has been set up are here:
http://acocksgreenfocusgroup.org.uk/2010/03/17/save-birmingham-city-council-conservation-department/
Sorry – sure how this blog works – but if this is published immediately and the link doesn’t work just cut and paste into your browser or go to
http://www.acocksgreenfocusgroup.org.uk
Basically, though, it looks as though we are set to loose BCC Conservation Department unless we act fast. Without it we look unlikely to get any more Conservation areas any time soon – if ever – and any work on local or statutory listings looks to be severely curtailed.
Best wishes
Julia
The Ring boxing club is just crap! It stinks, like its never been cleaned, the equipment is dated, and it is hardly open when needed! The staff are useless! Avoid!
