Bermondsey Rotherhithe Community Council September 2018

Saturday 8 September 2018 | 1pm to 3:45pm
City Hope Church, 121 Drummond Road, London SE16 2J

The topic for discussion at this meeting is Community Safety – Time for a Conversation. This is going to be a very engaging meeting as you will have the opportunity to discuss all topics with all group facilitators as we are making time for all of this but moving them around to each group. We will also have a representative from the Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC).

Please could you invite and share the meeting information with as many residents and community groups and other interested parties as possible. I am looking forward to seeing as many of you as possible and if you cannot make it please send through your questions or issues that can be raised.

Also, the meetings can be viewed via a live link which is made available via Facebook on the day of the meeting. If you would prefer for this to be emailed to you directly then please let me know.

Biscuit Factory Tour

There is also a tour of the Biscuit Factory development site at 12 noon with the meeting place being City Hope Church. That should last for about 40 mins as you all need to make it back to register for the meeting. I will be there from about 11:30am.
