Join us in creating a community plan for St. Ann’s Hospital site
I am posting this on behalf of St Ann's Redevelopment Trust (START). We are a group of residents who want to see truly affordable housing in Haringey for us, our kids and our grand-kids. We don’t want to be pushed out of the area which has been our home for years.
Next year, two-thirds of the St Ann’s Hospital site is due to be sold for private housing development, with only 14% of the homes classed as “affordable”. The current proposal takes no account of the needs of local people at a time of severe housing need. Workspaces and green spaces being turned into expensive housing and pressure is being put on local health services.
We believe we can do better than this! The St Ann’s site is a public asset which should be used for the benefit of the whole community rather than wealthy private developers and landlords.
We are running a consultation on what local people want from the site.
Please complete our survey and let us know what you. It will only take a few minutes.
Can you also forward to everyone you know who lives or works or plays in the area, as we need as many replies as possible so we find out what people really want for the site.
We need people to help with law advice, finances, publicity, planning and so much more. Even if you don’t have these particular skills, we still need your help to make this a true community project. We can only make this happen by working together.
START's web site and mail service aren't ready yet, but click follow on this thread and we'll post them here as soon as they are ready.
Thanks
Geoff
