Club closure - A light at the end of the tunnel for BHSSC?

There could be hope in keeping the building safe from developers, read on from The Friends Of BHSSC...

"The Brighton Trades Labour Club on Lewes Road has closed after 108 years to be sold for development. It could be a brilliant home for all sorts of community activities and events and is too precious to let go without a fight. 

We are a group of grassroots events organisers - some of us used to run popular events at the club before it closed and know it has so much potential.

We submitted a nomination to the Council to register the club as an Asset of Community Value and succeeded in preventing its sale to developers until the end of April.

We are now working on a plan to raise funding, grants and a community share offer to transform the club into a non-profit community space fit for the 21st century - THE BRIGHTON SOCIAL!
