The Action Group was delighted to have our campaign mentioned today in the Guardian newspaper's online edition. The article, by Sarah Hartley, features the role which online communities play in the wider democratic process, singling out W14London for particular praise. Most of us - and many residents of Sands End - are members of W14London and enjoy keeping in touch with local issues through its pages.
Our thanks go to the Guardian for mentioning our campaign and to Annette Albert, co-ordinator of W14London, for bringing us to their attention.

In July 2010, Hammersmith & Fulham Council launched a public consultation over its plans to sell the Sands End Community Centre. Following this announcement, an Action Group was set up in order to contest the proposed sale. These pages tell the story of the continuing struggle, by the residents of Sands End, to save their Centre.
