HERNE HILL FORUM: TUE 21st JUNE:
ANOTHER ATTENDANCE OVER ONE HUNDRED, LOADS OF ISSUES AND NEW OFFICERS AND COMMITTEE
A very good audience truned out for some fascinating debate and comment on a host of Lambeth and Southwark subjects. There was a very good presentation on policing on the Herne Hill side of Lambeth, with emphasis on Ruskin Park, items on Controlled Parking Zones, street vibrations, Herne Hill Junction, parking on Carlton Parade, lack of public toilets, Brockwell Park Lottery bid, and, most important, loads of people speaking from the floor. All the Councillors in Lambeth Herne Hill Ward, two from Southwark Village Ward, one from Thurlow Park Ward and the Deputy Leader of Lambeth were all present to listen, speak and contribute.
The next Herne Hill Forum will be in September, probably at the Baptist Church in Half Moon Lane. Don't miss it -- there'll be a leaflet through your door!
During the evening the Chair, David Cianfarani, stood down at the end of his very busy year, during which the Herne Hill Forum Public Meetings were attended by our Member of Parliament, GLA Assembly Member, the Prospective Parliamentary Candidates for the 3 main parties, Green Party representatives, the Leader of Dulwich Community Council and 17 Councillors from Lambeth and Southwark. Giles Gibson is the new Chair and, on taking office, highlighted the huge amount of ongoing items and issues that had originated from the Herne Hill Forum, which of course means all of you. We thank you for bringing so many items to our Meetings. Hazel Watson remained as Vice-Chair and Jean Bergin became Treasurer. Yvonne Levy, Nicholas Abengowe, Alan Gaunt, Mary Hill and John Frankland were elected to the Committee, which also allows for up to 9 additional places for local Organisations such as Herne Hill Society, Friends of Brockwell Park and Carnegie Library, Springfield and Stradella and Hurst Street Residents, the Transport Umbrella Group and Herne Hill Traders.
