The need to make hefty cuts in Council expendture has been flagged up for some time. The Council needs to save £96 million by April 2019 as a result of reduced central government funding. This will affect every single one of us from fortnightly waste collections and reduced road gritting to possibly closing the Solace mental health drop-in centre in West Ealing and 400 redundancies amongst Council staff.
We’ll come back to this in more detail but for now the Ealing Today website has a useful summary of some of the cuts that may be made.
Save Lammas play centre! Among the cuts Ealing council are proposing is the closure of Lammas park play centre, please sign petition & contact your councillor about it http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/lammas-play-centre-proposed-closure
