Aim: to set up a Friends Group for Victoria Park

Victoria Park is a fine park – it could be great with an active Friends Group.

Friends Groups
• directly involve the community in park events and changes
• increase access to funding – crucial during Council cuts
• make parks better

There are almost 50 friends of park groups in Edinburgh. Each is dedicated to improving their Park and increasing community involvement.

Come along and help us get a Victoria Park Friends Group off the ground!

Bin the Bedroom Tax: public meeting in Muirhouse tonight

Bin the Bedroom Tax!

All welcome to an open meeting to start a local fight-back group in Muirhouse to resist the bedroom tax and the cuts.

7pm Thursday 25 April

Millennium Centre, 7 Muirhouse Medway

We want to create a strong independent local group to:

· stop any evictions for rent arrears due to the cuts : if needbe by defending homes against the sheriff officers

· battle for the complete abolition of the bedroom tax

· fight for all the rent arrears from the bedroom tax to be written off – and for all who have paid the rent increase to be paid back

· support all local people affected in making an appeal against the cut to their Housing Benefit and/or in applying for a Discretionary Housing Payment

· be a way for local people to organise grass-roots resistance: we do not support any political party

· link-up with other groups in North Edinburgh, round the city, Scotland and Britain to co-ordinate our fight-back

· oppose all the cuts – why should we pay for the greed of the rich and for the crisis of their unfair system?

Don’t give up your tenancy – join us to fight back!

CAN’T PAY – WON’T MOVE!
