AND another from me ahead of tomorrow's Assembly meeting!

Why is Forest Hill being cut before Downham when as far as I know FH lends more books!

To my knowledge FH comes third after Lewisham and Deptford!

I'm not the best on figures but this is my understanding, please correct me if I'm wrong.

Please sign the petition if you agree with me.

I will be asking this, but not what I will be most vocal about.

I will be asking how anyone can take this service away from local kids and parents who have came to me and asked me to fight for their Library.

To quote a 12 year old yesterday "Are you really having to fight to keep the Library for us, everyone at school says you are having too"
Me "Don't worry (she was crying)"
Her "Please try and keep it open for us"
Me "I will"
Her "I feel so sad and upset about this thank you for doing this for us"
Me " Don't be silly I will fight this all the way for you kids and I'll do all I can to keep your Library.

When this kid left I cried my eyes out because I don't know if I can keep to my word on this but I sure damn will try.

This is how the kids feel and I see it first hand.

I really hope the people that want to go ahead with this proposal take this in to account.

They don't see this side as they are not on Dartmouth Road everyday. I am and can see how many kids this upsets and to what extent.

The above convo is only one of many the kids have spoke to me about.
