LEWISHAM: Community Action Lewisham to take on cuts

11:40am Tuesday 22nd June 2010 in News

A COMMUNITY group is planning to cut out politicians by tackling social issues itself.

Community Action Lewisham is asking people in the borough to share their concerns and the things that need changing.

It has been set up in the light of the government’s cost-cutting programme, outlined in today's budget.

Spokesman James Holland said: “Community Action Lewisham think that these cuts are not necessary - it’s not our crisis and we don’t see why we should pay for it.

“But we’re not going to beg for them to stop the cuts either. Instead we're going to organise ourselves and take control.“ To get in touch with your concerns email CommunityActionLewisham@googlemail.com
