With the town centre on the brink of big and exciting change, Team Catford, a small group of passionate Catford residents, is about to launch a major community engagement on behalf of Lewisham Council.

Public events for residents to chat to Team Catford about the future of our neighbourhood will take place on:

Weds 27th September, 1 – 5pm, Little Nan’s Bar (foyer of Broadway Theatre)
Tues 3rd October, 7 – 9pm, Rushey Green Local Assembly, Civic Suite
Weds 18th October, 11am – 2pm, Catford Library
Sat 21st October, 10am – 2pm, Catford Library
Weds 1st November, 7pm – 9pm, Catford South Local Assembly, St Laurence Church Hall

Team Catford speaks up for the community, champions local views and is encouraging everyone who lives, works, socialises, commutes or runs a business to have their say as Catford goes through its biggest change in decades.

Catford is already speaking out with almost 1,000 people posting about what they like about the town centre and ideas for how it could be improved. To see what they’re saying, agree or disagree with their points of view and add your own comments visit catfordtowncentre.commonplace.is.

The Council plan to develop a masterplan for the town centre in spring 2018 reflecting the community’s feedback that will be collected over the coming months.

Love what @teamcatford is doing with its video series - particularly this one:

It’s great to see (central) government funding the regeneration of areas like Catford in such a positive way - by solving problems (like the traffic around the gyratory), creating new community assets like the street market, and paying for skilled and media-savvy types to promote the area.

Makes sense.
So it makes me sick that Lewisham Council did away with the Forest Hill Town Centre Manager some years ago.
Perhaps it’s because we’re a little too far away from the Town Hall hierarchy who will only have to walk out of their front door to be able to wallow in their own self-congratulation and self-importance for the great job that they’ve done in their town centre (yeah, with bundles of money!).
