TODAY IS THE DAY

#SouthWestFest 2019

Friday 28th June - Sunday 21st July

Starting with our #PimlicoProms tonight!

[Millbank Community @MillbankC]

Fantastic local community dinner organised by artist with @EmmaWilson with @ChelseaUAL @MillbankW @meettatebritain @CavePimlico having a neighbourhood stakeholder conversation as part of a graduation project. Talk of #SocialHousing #MoatCommunityGarden #MillbankEstate

[Millbank Community @MillbankC]

The Millbank Community at large is going to be deprived of an urgently needed open green space for its growing population stemming from new property developments. The new museum is much better placed in the large and under-utilised War Museum Park nearby.

[Millbank Community @MillbankC]

5 years of successful, volunteer managed #MoatCommunityGarden at Millbank is celebrated with rejuvenation project. Support by @ChelseaUAL, @Tate Britain, @CityWestminster Parks & Recycling and @MillbankW. It's 20 local residents growing 50 different plants & working with students

[Millbank Community @MillbankC]

Might tempt some SW1 residents to venture into North-Westminster and meet some other gardeners.

[One Westminster @One_Westminster]

Calling local gardeners fancy a few hours helping the #Westminster community? #Volunteer with us on Thurs 11 April for a gardening day out in St Johns Wood. Call Nigel on 020 7723 1216 to book a place or see https://t.co/AXnHiNt42Q for more details. Lunch will be provided

[Millbank Community @MillbankC]

Great. We hope this is going for Millbank too.

Failing current Government policies are at the core of increased societal fragmentation and serious increased deprivation. Warnung denials are evident and shameful.

[Karen Buck @KarenPBuckQP]

@krustysghost @LabourSJ It’s utterly heartbreaking. And as we demonstrated ten years ago, can be solved with the will and resources applied not just in housing but in social security and other preventive services

[Millbank Community @MillbankC]

...and look at the Thousands of empty speculative Investment properties our current Government policies are creating. Related Building Sites are everywhere whilst realy affordable housing is still neglected. Even the new draft #LondonPlan is telling the same sad story.

[Karen Buck @KarenPBuckQP]

Every story is one of stress and often shame, too. No space for a disabled teenager to use his wheelchair; a child with cancer sleeping on the floor; mattresses covering the only living space- and no hope as no-one’s moving any more because there’s nowhere to move to.

[Millbank Community @MillbankC]

And reducing staffing and repairs budgets on housing estates reduces level of service for the poorest and concealing of infrastructure problems sets in. Shortsighted leaseholders simply book privat contractors and are pleased about low service and reduced major works charges.

[Karen Buck @KarenPBuckQP]

Who could possibly have known that reducing people’s ability to pay rent would lead to homelessness?

[Millbank Community @MillbankC]

You can't just build new luxury homes in the thousands and in addition take away the needed already scares local green spaces, also getting over crowded by dog loving residents in the new luxury flats. And you do not want to mess about with some of the new beasts on parade.

[Pimlico Alliance @pimlicoalliance]

Threatened by unthinking @EricPickles @edballs Please @MarkFieldUK guard our dwindling green spaces for our children.

[Karen Buck @KarenPBuckQP]

You can’t have rights without the means of enforcing them. You can’t have justice if people don’t have access to justice. I’ve got a short Parliamentary debate on Legal Aid later today- this is what I will be talking about. https://t.co/98EXfx57EL

3 years Renters guarantee killed by Theresa May.@ResidentsPanel

[jonn elledge is mainly on bluesky @JonnElledge]

Downing Street is nervous about upsetting landlords. Renters, not so much.

[Millbank Community @MillbankC]

How many past housing ministers do feel guilty about this horrendous continuous failure in housing policy? And where are this politicians now?

[LGANews @LGANews]

More than 123,000 children and their families have spent their school holiday homeless, councils reveal today. Since 2011, councils have been housing an additional 650 homeless children every month in temporary accommodation https://t.co/7lgia0F4iA #ukhousing

[Millbank Community @MillbankC]

@PDimoldenberg Good. This needs to be cleared up properly and asap. No world-class city and leading tourist destination can allow such allegations to hang around.

[Millbank Community @MillbankC]

You can sample inspiring work of #ChelseaUAL students presented during this weekend in studios, galleries and corners across the College. And if that is not enough, pop in at #TATE Britain across the road or explore #MillbankEstate with its beautiful court yards & MoatGarden https://t.co/2NT0WDlEBB

[Chelsea College of Arts @ChelseaUAL]

On the lead up the #UALsummershows opening today, we caught up with BA Interior & Spatial Design student, Lukas Gschwandtner & Tutor Simon Kinneir about Lukas’ final project.

Doing things differently has its challenges but also big rewards if managed right. https://t.co/Y7GSdpzSpS

[Millbank Community @MillbankC]

Since we initiated the access to #MillbankGardens a number of years ago for this joyful event, #SouthWestFest has year after year produced a fantastic family neighbourhood Sunday. And we are sure 2018 will not be an exception. https://t.co/VDoMEMS06c

We're currently raising money for The Andrea Project - giving teenage writers the opportunity to see their plays onstage. It's a great project, and in need of your help! Please share far and wide & any pennies you can spare would make a huge difference :-) https://t.co/1q6mX1IhSn
