Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Wards Corner Community Appeal- needs you!The progress of the Wards Corner Community Coalition Judicial Review against LB Haringey's planning committee's decision to demolish Wards Corner and allow the Grainger plan is picking up speed.

Details at http://wardscorner.wikispaces.com/. JR is the highest form of appeal against local authority decisions and is costly as we have to employ highly specialist legal advisors.

Members of WCC have shown tremendous public spirit and applied on our behalf for Legal Aid towards a substantial part of the cost of our JR. The WCC itself will be required to raise around £12,500 over the life of the JR in total. Last month we raised over £5,000 at very short notice to start the JR. We now need to raise another £3,000 to pay our share of work done so far.

WCC are in the process of opening a bank account with the Co-op. If anyone would like to make a financial contribution to assist us (no matter how small the sum) you can contribute to the WCC Fighting Fund either:

-by making a payment through paypal, go to http://wardscorner.wikispaces.com/

-a cheque payable to: 'Wards Corner Community Coalition’ and send to WCC, c/o Wendy Keenan, 95 Kirkton Road, London N15 5EY.

-cash is also very welcome (same address)

This is something we can all contribute to, every humble fiver will make a difference in oiling the legal wheels. To contact Wendy or for further information, please feel free to e-mail: wendy866@btinternet.com and I shall be pleased to answer any questions.

This could and should be our very own David & Goliath encounter. A once in a lifetime opportunity.

Thank you.

Wendy Keenan.
