Report from meeting 5/6/2008

The meeting on 5 June was very well attended - just like our first meeting - so thank you to everyone who came along.

This meeting was important because we agreed the constitution as well as key officers, who can take the group forward. A full account of the meeting is listed as a comment to this post (click on 'comments' below)

Petition for Town Centre Manager for Ladywell Village.

As those of you who were at the meeting we held on the 5th June will know we have started a petition to get Ladywell Village the time of a Town Centre manager. This is something that many other areas of a comparable size to Ladywell Village that are classified as Neighbourhood Shopping Centres already have (e.g. Brockley Cross, Hither Green and Honor Oak) and we think that it would greatly benefit Ladywell too. It was cited as one of the key factors that lead to the improvements around Brockley Station. If you didn't get a chance to sign the petition last night or weren't at the meeting and agree with us then please follow this link and sign the petition online:

A Group is formed

As Ladywell residents, we hope you will by now have either seen a poster or had a flyer drop through your door to tell you about the next stage of the Ladywell Village Improvement Group.

The current informal 'committee', made up of people who wanted to repeat the success seen in Brockley, would like to formalise the Group and get members on board, to agree on a Constitution and to vote on formal Committee Members. We were delighted with the turn out for the meeting held earlier in the year and want to encourage everyone from Ladywell Village to get on board.

We really want people who "don't normally do thing sort of thing" to join in - and so we are holding a meeting on Thursday 5 June at the St Mary's Centre, Ladywell Road at 7.30pm.

At the meeting the Constitution (below) will be formalised and every member of LVIG vote on the Committee. All you need to do to join LVIG is turn up!
