Save Bath Place – please sign the petition

Hi,
If you feel happy to, please sign the petition found at the link below (at very bottom) about keeping the “Bath Place Community Venture” at the old Library rather than letting the state sell it to convert it into apartments.  Every little action helps.
(if you’ve already signed, that’s great)
BPCV runs with no subsidy and, apart from its own work supporting people who most need support, it hosts many arts and youth organisations.  There is no place it could move to without being broken up and becoming unviable.  The college who own it have no interest in this other than their own financial agenda.
More background can be read at:
or see its Annual Report on http://www.bathplace.org/  or ring me for a chat.
Please also be prepared, should it arise, to raise an objection to planning approval for its change of use.
Many thanks
Andrew

Feeding the 5000

Friday saw the ‘Feeding the 5000′ event, at which 5000 members of the public in Trafalgar Square ate curry made from surplus food that would otherwise have been wasted. Its aim was to highlight how easy it is to reduce the unimaginable levels of food waste in the UK and internatonally, and in doing so benefit those who don’t have enough to eat.

The event urged the public to sign the Feeding the 5000 pledge calling for acton from governments, retailers and food businesses: ‘I pledge to reduce my food waste and I want businesses to do the same’. Fear not! Although the event is over, those unable to attend the event will be able to pledge through the Feeding the 5000 website (www.feeding5k.org). Around 80 percent of consumers want businesses to tackle food waste: this offers an opportunity for businesses to respond to the challenge in proactive, positive ways.
