Catherine West MP said: “Lots of people have been in touch with me since Friday when Haringey Council announced their preferred bidder for Hornsey Town Hall. I will be in the caf at Hornsey Town Hall next Thursday 13 October at 4pm to speak to anyone who’d like to discuss this with me or you can drop me a line. I will be formally responding to the Cabinet Report once it’s available and am very keen to hear local residents’ views on the council’s plans for this iconic site.”

“Since plans to put the redevelopment of Hornsey Town Hall & Square out for tender were first announced, I have been pushing hard for a not-for-profit organisation, such as a housing association, to take on this much-loved site and I’ve repeatedly argued that any housing should be a minimum of 50 per cent affordable.”
