A DAY TO REMEMBER - Save your Community Flat

On the Saturday 1st of October a protest and petition was held outside the community flat after receiving information by e-mail from GGHT that they are to close the flat as a Community Building. From the results of our petition and survey there is much opposition to the closure . The officers of Vipra wish to thank Councillor Maureen McLaughlin and other local labour group members for their help on the day . Please have a look at some of the images below to see how the day went and also to

say a big thank you to all who helped on the day and everyone who came over to support us and sign the petition - probably the greatest number of signatures for an event of its kind in this area .
