For those of you who have taken their children to the fantastic Crystal Palace One O Clock Club you may be alarmed to hear it might be closing.
Its an excellent playgroup, with a great mix of crafts, outside area and good quality toys . With all the Surestart cuts as well, this will be a blow to parents of under 5s.

There is a petition here:

to quote the site
"At the moment this fantastic place is under threat of closure as the charitable trust that runs it mytimeactive has said that the building the club is in is dilapidated and they are unable to to pay for the repairs. They want to replace the One O'Clock Club with another kind of service for under fives and sub lease the building. So the One O'Clock club will close down. No one knows what other kind of service for the under fives will be.
We want to stop this from happening as we know that countless parents and children have benefited over the past 30 years.
Come to the meetings with the representatives from Myime Active and tell them why we want the facility to stay open. There are two meetings next week, one on Wednesday 18th at 1pm-2.30pm and one on Thursday 19th at 9.30am-11.30am. You can bring your children as normal. "
