Cllr Robinson addresses the meeting |
The Royal British Legion Hall in
Northview Drive, Westcliff-on-Sea, reminds me of a Tardis. This establishment
has a modest frontage, but go inside and it turns into a rather sizeable
establishment. This was the venue for last night's meeting of the Westborough
Community Association.
I have been to a few WCA meetings
over the years. Last night's appeared the least well attended, reflected in a
sombre address by the Chair. There is a cloud over the WCA at the moment, and
real doubts exist as to its future. This is a shame as I feel that community
grounds likes this, a residents' association in all but name, really help in
making a neighbourhood a better place to live and work in.
Nonetheless, I found it an
interesting meeting. The Chair's spoke wanted to know what members wanted from
their association - is it just to be about clearing up litter and fly-tipping?
Cllrs Kevin Robinson and Anne
Jones gave reports as to what they had been up to on behalf of their residents.
As always, the end of the meeting
gave me an opportunity to catch with one or two people.
