Lambeth Council have announced that anyone who lives, works or studies in Streatham can come along to put their questions at the first “Meet the Cabinet” drop-in meeting, at Streatham Library, on Monday 23 November, from 2pm to 4pm.

The event is the first in a series of similar meetings over the coming months, where members of the council’s Cabinet will be available to talk to residents face-to-face.

The event will offer residents and local community organisations the chance to:

• Meet and talk with the Leader of the council and elected members, to learn about their different areas of work – such as climate, housing and children’s services.
• Give feedback on local issues and priorities
• Share ideas to strengthen local engagement
• Raise awareness of local projects and partnerships

You might wish to ask about the pending planning change of use of Streatham Hill Theatre to a church, given the published business plan for a viable commercial and community theatre.
