1. I moved to the area about a week ago and I would love to see this space repurposed and revitalised to serve the community! I think it’s a great idea and I’m excited to see it get off the ground 🙂

2. I would love to see a cafe here, a community space something that is child friendly and inclusive. I think what they’re doing over at Dad’s lane community centre is fantastic and I’d love to see a similar project nearer home for me! This strip in particular feels quite run down and it would be great to invest to make it really feel a part of the community.

3. I think it is a lovely idea and a real opportunity to make an accessible and cosy place for community. Perhaps (depending on space) there could be themed groups that meet there, Crochet, film club, Knitting, D&D? Whatever the local community wanted. Also I think decoratively, a lot of seating areas with pretty cushions- I imagine just a very calm environment. Looking forward to assisting on this.

4. Time for the council to give up on tinpot, no use projects and spend our tax money on what the majority of the constituents really need and want. The proposed area for this cafe haven’t had a coat of paint or a tidy up of the frontage areas in decades. Councillors are only interested in the city centre and couldn’t care less about the suburbs.

5. I am appalled that the previous business, a cafe which went out of its way to be a community hub was forced to close because the unit was so rotten with damp and mould issues. The council could have maintained the unit properly instead it forced her out of business and now talk about opening a business on the same place as if it was a new idea. Agree that this community definitely needs a space and it’s a great idea but the mould problem needs to be properly treated otherwise don’t bother!
