Hi guys 👋
Im sorry this has taken so long for an update. I have been hesitant to put anything out as I was trying to find the right words. This is not the update I wanted to give unfortunately but its an update none the less.
Long story short, Back when I started this page my initial plan to save the arts centre was to turn it back into a music venue to hold Live events as I felt this would be an excellent solution for everyone including the council.
My plan of action to achieve this was going to be to get a viewing of the internal building, work out what needs to be repaired in order for the building to be fit for use by the general public and then form a committee to drum up support in the local community and hopefully raise the significant amount and maybe attract investors to get the doors open again...
Unfortunately simply getting a viewing was alot harder than I thaught. I initially contacted the council in January but was ignored and passed on from person to person until, after endless chasing for a follow up i was told it had been passed to a chartered surveyors for sale...
I was finally contacted and offered a viewing at the beginning of May (2nd May to be exact) to be then told final bids for the building needed to be in by Friday 9th May.
As you can imagine this would have been an impossible task for me to achieve in a week and I do believe this was a deliberate deterrent to avoid saving the building for its intended use.
I have also tried to garner support and awareness by contacting local media outlets,radio stations and even theatre and national heritage charities to raise awareness but unfortunately no one seemed to want to support and get behind our cause which has left me shocked and disappointed with little options on what to do next 😕

Im not sure if it has been sold yet as last time I saw the sign (and at time of writing) did not say SOLD.

I am sorry I haven't been able to do more however I do not want to leave this on a negative note. Instead I would like to end this with a poem that a local resident has written in honour of our beloved arts centre. They would like to remain anonymous however please take these words with you.

Please feel free to share.

Hi everyone 👋

Following the news of the potential sale of Netherton Arts Centre we are looking to put together a committee of like minded individuals to save and pull the centre back from the brink and restore the venue to its original purpose and put some much needed life back into our netherton. ☺️
You may have saw before I have been campaigning to turn the arts centre into a music venue holding themed events,tribute nights and theatre shows.This way the centre will have a sustainable form of income and it will also allow the centre to be opened up again for the various community groups who utilised its premises prior to closure and will also offer an economic boost to the various businesses in the hospitality sector who operate in the surrounding area.

If you would like to get involved please comment below 👇🏻 or send a message 😊
**No negative comments please or 'why bother' comments. It's better to try than to do nothing at all. At least we are trying** Thank you 😊
