Rejected petition Help us keep Community House in Long Eaton open for community use.

We want your support to stop Derbyshire County Council closing or selling 'Community House' as it is a vital asset to the Long Eaton community.
There are no other community centres in Long Eaton or any other buildings that can provide the youth club facilities that this building does.

More details

This building has a powerful legacy within the community and has been used as a youth club since the 1950's, with memories lasting for generations. It is still a vital resource to young people and families to this day, being used weekly for youth clubs, family sessions and during school holidays. The club provides a safe and positive environment for young people to develop confidence, learn new skills and feel valued in our community. Closing this building would be a huge loss to our community!
