The Community Centre idea using the premises facing Nightingale Gardens went quiet as I ran out of steam!  Anyone prepared to front the idea I am prepared to help but realised I did not have sufficient  time to initiate such an project which will be hard going for a considerable length of time.

Thanks Kate - I understand the issue of "running out of steam" - it's a major thing to bring something like this together - and I agree with Tom, I find it nothing short of bizarre that landlords would rather the premises stand unused with a theoretical rent on them of £30K/annum instead of letting them at peppercorn (or at least non-exorbitant) rent to groups who could potentially turn the whole street around.
