Rejected petition Prevent Harold Wood, Gidea Park and Southhorn Church library to not close down!

Harold wood, Gidea Park and Southhorn Church Library are closing down due to lack on money. This will create problems in the community as these libraries bring alot of community coheison in the communities. They should not close down and try to stay open.

More details

We would like the government to try to not close these 3 libraries to increase community cohesion in the communities and create a sense of belonging to everyone. People go to the libraries to chill and make friends and if these libraries close their will be a lack of equality. People wont mix with different ethnicities and stay very close only with their friends and family.
