@chromaitca Hi - just did!

[Linda Somerville @lindasomervill]

Early days but BIG ambition from #Leith community taking steps towards community ownership, building on the success of @saveleithwalk campaign

[Linda Somerville @lindasomervill]

Let parks be parks, let houses be homes, let councillors remember - tourists don't vote - we do. #OurCity is being rented, tented and flogged for profit 🎡 Get organised #SaveLeithWalk @ReimaginingCity https://t.co/Fk0uh4TCl9

.@GroupDrum do the right thing until planning has been granted, keep Leith Walk Cafe open. If you close this valuable asset many elderly & vulnerable people will become isolated. @7IM_PressOffice @ustewart #saveleithwalk #extendtheleases #dotherightthing #community

Very sad to hear @EarlHaigHall has closed- the location of the ‘You Should See’ video shoot. Here’s hoping that this place and @HornseyTownHall retain their character under new ownership.

[FrancyBoe @BoeFrancy]

#CommunityEngagement #SaveLeithWalk “Increased amount of families with children in temporary accommodation in Leith” that’s why we want to see more #socialHousing

[FrancyBoe @BoeFrancy]

@saveleithwalk “We are not anti student housing but we want something that is adaptable to the future and allows students to build a home within the community”
#AlternativeVision

[FrancyBoe @BoeFrancy]

@saveleithwalk “There’s a lack of affordable and accessible spaces for community groups in Leith, 106-154 Stead’s Place could offer an #AlternativeVision”

A copy of our open letter has been put up on the hoarding. To date @GroupDrum has not responded to our request to take down the hoarding and open up the shops. They are ignoring public opinion and our Councillors, MP and MSP
