Save Meadowbank

Raising awareness about the future of Meadowbank sports centre and the impact on residents, the environment, sports and health outcomes of the Council's plans

[Save Meadowbank @SaveMeadowbankC]

Come along next week and hear an alternative less costly plan

Let’s see what the results of the councils consultation look like at meadowbank

[Save Meadowbank @SaveMeadowbankC]

@Edinburgh_CC Hmm so wonder if you will take any notice of those 50,000 responses like you have at Meadowbank, Leigh walk, portobello, trams #SaveMeadowbankC

[Save Meadowbank @SaveMeadowbankC]

Look where meadowbank has got to #SaveMeadowbankC

@SaveMeadowbankC feels good delivering last batch of leaflets near this great community garden

[Kevin Illingworth for City Centre @Kevini_Official]

@LezleyMCameron @jomowat @FlatsRuin @drsharwood @oculusaye @thecockburn @adamfuturepast @EdinOldTownCC @Edinburgh_CC @scotgov Interesting when the council planning committee seems to support the devt of student accommodation everywhere we turn - Airbnb in any other name #OurMeadowbank #SaveMeadowbankC

[Save Meadowbank @SaveMeadowbankC]

Local resident shares the last photos of Meadowbank’s iconic grandstand floodlights.

[John Scott @Room435rules]

@Kevini_Official @SaveMeadowbankC Good luck pal. Let's take some votes off these Charlatans.

[Save Meadowbank @SaveMeadowbankC]

Floodlights going going and gone!

@danc00ks0n @DA_Anderson @thecockburn @GavinKBarrie @andyheald @Historylecturer @FBBVP @ScienceAndMaps @MapNav_Tom @Edinburgh_CC . . . for the Meadowbank redevelopment. What is particularly disappointing is that these are street trees on the periphery of the development, which could have easily been incorporated in the new design. @SaveMeadowbankC @MeadowbankTrees @Alex4Craig_Dudd

[Simon Holledge @Holledge]

@CllrCMiller @DDLL42 @EwMc1969 @fountainbridge @edinburghpaper @jomowat @NatGalleriesSco @Edinburgh_CC Exactly. Either one side or the other has to take responsibility for explaining to the public what is going on. And this applies all over Edinburgh. The worst example of this not being done, I think, is Meadowbank, rather than East Princes Street Gardens. @SaveMeadowbankC

[Edinburgh Spotlight @edinspotlight]

@Holledge @CllrCMiller @DDLL42 @EwMc1969 @fountainbridge @jomowat @NatGalleriesSco @Edinburgh_CC @SaveMeadowbankC Could you please @CllrCMiller get them to change their signs saying E P St Gardens are closed beyond the Scott Monument?

They’re not. You can walk to the rear gardens & enjoy that green space & exit via Waverley Bridge/Market St

Our polite requests have fallen on deaf ears

@SaveMeadowbankC ward map on my bedroom wall! #votekevin #leithwalkvotes

[Save Meadowbank @SaveMeadowbankC]

@taihapetimes Well they don’t even have the choice to do so as the council didn’t engage in any conversation with them (according to councils own documents)

[Save Meadowbank @SaveMeadowbankC]

Game changer? Does the right hand know what the left hand is doing at edin council?

[Save Meadowbank @SaveMeadowbankC]

@seanieRW Yes but the council will have to pass the planning application and the mini meadowbank can’t support outdoor competitions coz of reduction of 90% spectator capacity. It will be linked
