I'm in a similar place to Jason - I've lived in the estate for 8 years and been a member of TLERA for that time. Generally found it to be a force for the good, particularly when it is creating a real sense of neighborhood which is missing from many parts of London.

I am really thankful to the committee for the many great community events - without them the estate would be another faceless part of south-east London.

However, I feel that financially supporting an action against a nursery on a legal technicality, when planning permission was granted and the evidence of real nuisance was so weak, was plain wrong without a mandate.
