WE NEED YOUR HELP!

The Council are consulting on developing the Cameron Centre and Police Station site, they make no commitment to community space or to LNT having a continued role.

There is a huge focus on building homes in Lockleaze at the moment. The Community Plan identifies a lack of social spaces and community facilities in Lockleaze. With the addition of 1,000 new homes over the coming years and the impacts of the pandemic lockdowns, these amenities are more important than ever.  We need to make sure that alongside the provision of all these homes not only must we protect our community spaces, but also provide new services and amenities for the community as part of new development. 

In particular the Cameron Centre & Police Station site development should:

  • Enhance and increase existing community space

  • Respond to community plan resident-identified wants and needs including

    • Create opportunities for local jobs

    • Create spaces to socialise (responding to requests for affordable food and drink and night time economy)

    • Create support for wellbeing and employment

    • Support sustainable community spaces



Please help us by letting the Council and developers know that you value community space and don't want the opportunity of this site to be overwhelmed by pressure for more housing.

Sneak preview

We are excited to tell you that tonight and the community forum we are launching our Lockleaze development leaflet which will be coming to all households in Lockleaze soon. With so much development going on it is hard to keep track. Here is a comprehensive list of the development in Lockleaze to help you keep track of what is going on. Details do change all the time so it is only a snapshot in time but should help keep residents up to date.
