Herne Hill Forum

 

"Can you help?  The Herne Hill Society is looking for
someone to assist them in dealing with licensing
issues and licensing applications in Herne Hill.

There's a lot going on at the moment; not least the
problems of cross border consultation and cooperation
between Lambeth and Southwark.  This was an important
feature of a recent meeting chaired by Tessa Jowell.
However, there are also reviews of Councils' policies
on licensing; the expansion of Herne Hill's late night
economy; and an increase in the numbers of
applications to allow premises to operate late into
the night (until 5.00am). 

The impact on residents and on the character of Herne
Hill makes this an important area with which there
should be more local involvement.  But limited
resources make this difficult.  Would you be willing
to help?  If you think you might be interested, please
contact the Herne Hill Society's Vice-Chair, John
Brunton, on 020 8678 1757; or email
johndbrunton@yahoo.com."
