Latest Minutes Plus…

Good morning all (and a beautiful sunny morning it is too). Just a couple of updates/items of news to share with you. Firstly, some minutes of recent meetings for those unable to attend: The Consort chaired budget meeting of 19th March (held in the library) HERE, and the DSRA meeting of 21st April (held in the Bootstrap building in Ashwin St.) HERE. There will be more news regarding the issues raised in these, connected, meetings soon, but for now the minutes will give you the gist of what is going on. (As always, these files are hosted over at our discussions forum. Simply click the highlighted link to save a pdf copy of the document to your computer for your perusal. If you are unable to access the links, read THIS, and, if you qualify, follow it’s instructions HERE.)

Next up, something all mums and dads may be interested in. This from The Trinity Centre:

Dear All

Dalston has few public play spaces and we have been working to 
improve the Wards play provision for children. Not only have we been 
arguing for the new Dalston Square to be promoted as a place for 
children and families to gather, since the Beechwood Road Street party 
and the Council Play Street Policy we are keen for more streets to be 
adopted for play on a regular basis. Working with Play Out and the 
local play streets organizer for Hackney we are hosting a meeting next 
month to inform residents and parents on how to go about organizing 
streets for play in their area.

As well as being invited to the attached event could you please be so 
kind as to publicize it to your residents and members.
