CAN WE AFFORD TO LOSE THIS OLYMPIC SPORT IN AN OLYMPIC HOST BOROUGH?
WE NEED YOUR HELP NOW!
Hackneys' only gymnastic club, North East London Gymnastics club, is in danger of closing down if they don't move to a new venue soon - the current venue, Stoke Newington School, is closing the sports hall as part of the "Building schools for the future", now scheduled to start on the 6th of July 2009. This gives us just 3 weeks to secure this new site for our non-profit gym club.
North East London Gymnastics club has found a building which would be suitable for their purpose, which is the old ZoomAround building in Milton grove, the only building in the area which has the double height ceiling required. We have offered to pay the full commercial lease on the building and handed in a strong business proposal. We just need to cut through the red tape and get a decision made. We are not asking for any money from the council, all we need is someone to say YES. A short list of prospective tenants for the building should be drawn up by the 25th June 2009 so please act now.
Please stand up and be counted and help us cut through the red tape and resolve this problem.
Hackney needs this gymnastics club to keep delivering gymnastics to our community. Lets ensure that this club is able to continue to deliver this Olympic sport to your children, your future children and grandchildren with this new home in Hackney. With this new facility we could not only support the existing 300 children but also, offer this to the 500 children on the waiting list. Giving more children the opportunity to be off the streets and thriving in a sporting environment. If we shut 1500 school children could also lose gymnastic in their school.
Thank you
