Trust Thamesmead’s long-held
dream of creating first class outdoor sporting facilities in
Thamesmead is to become reality with the news that the community development agency has
succeeded in gaining two major
sources of funding.
The Football Foundation, the UK’s largest
sports charity, has
pledged £1.
075 million
with another £525,000
coming from the
Homes and Communities Agency (HCA), the
national housing and regeneration agency for
England.
Despite the difficult financial climate, this
outcome, which is the
result of a lot of hard
work over a number of
years, will allow Trust
Thamesmead to build
Sporting Club Thamesmead, a new community multi sports hub on
the site of Thamesmead Town Football Club.
The new facility will provide an iconic community sports pavilion with changing facilities, indoor activity rooms and social facilities available
to all residents of Thamesmead.
Outside there will be a new full size floodlit synthetic turf pitch for year round community football and other sports, a full sized senior grass
football pitch and ancillary grass pitches in the
adjacent Crossways Park, and a floodlit Multi
Use Games Area available for a wide range of
sports and activities.
The scheme also features enhanced parking and
access to the site, as well as improved spectator
facilities for supporters and members of
Thamesmead Town FC.

Chronicle
Alcohol Licences
withdrawn
Greenwich Council has won the right to stop
two businesses in Greenwich selling alcohol
following repeated incidents of under-age
sales.
Mr Joseph Kantsa appealed against a decision
by Greenwich Council to revoke his licence to
sell alcohol at his two businesses in Plumstead
and Charlton.
At the hearing held at Bromley Magistrates
Court the bench dismissed Mr Kantsa’s appeal,
finding in favour of the Council’s decision to
remove his licence to sell alcohol at 379 Woolwich Road, Charlton.
Mr Kantsa was also ordered to pay £1,000 towards the Council’s
costs.
Under the Licensing Act 2003, a licensee is allowed to carry on selling alcohol while an appeal is pending.
Greenwich Council revoked
Mr Kantsa’s licence on 25 March 2008 because
of under-age sales.
Mr Kantsa lodged an appeal
and the appeal dates were postponed on a
number of occasions at his request.
During
this time, the Council carried out further test
purchases at the store and on three separate occasions alcohol was sold to someone underage.
Greenwich Council and the police gave evidence at the hearing.
The bench found all the
witnesses for the Council to be truthful and
credible whilst Mr Kantsa was found to be unwilling and/or unable to control his premises.
Kantsa also lost an appeal against the revocation of the licence for his other premise Kantsa
Food & Wine at 71 Plumstead Common Road,
SE18 at a hearing at the same court.
On this
occasion the Council was awarded £3,000 towards costs.
Local MP, John Austin has described the
Mayor of London’s decision to axe the
Greenwich Waterfront Transit as “a massive blow to Thamesmead”.
John Austin
added, “This will mean a loss of £40 million
of investment in the area”.
“Boris was elected on the promise of more help
for outer London.
Bexley has already seen one
of the lowest allocations of transport monies by
him and now he axes what would have been a
life-line for Thamesmead.
It is even more
amazing as his adviser is former Bexley Tory
Leader, Ian Clement and Bexley Council has
been campaigning, along with me, for the extension of the GWT to Belvedere and Erith.
I
wonder what Bexley councillors think of their
former Leader now?”
John Austin said: “The Transit scheme has been
scaled down over the years from a possible tram,
to a guided bus and then to an ordinary bus
which would run for part of its route on dedicated highway but the Mayor’s decision to axe
the scheme altogether is a massive blow.
The
GWT would have provided a vital link for Abbey
Wood and Thamesmead with the Jubilee Line
station in North Greenwich.
Thamesmead is
one of the most isolated areas in London and its
residents are more dependent upon public
transport, and buses in particular, than the London average.
