Croydon's Libraries Under Threat!

Croydon’s Labour Council has revealed plans to close at least 5 of our libraries across the borough.

Residents and families across the borough, in Bradmore Green, Broad Green, Sanderstead, Shirley and South Norwood, rely on these vital community facilities.

Save our Recycling Centres!

Croydon’s Labour Council intends to close up to two of our three recycling centres at Factory Lane, Fishers Farm (New Addington) or Purley Oaks.

This will mean longer waiting times and congested roads at whichever centre remains open and will increase flytipping across our Borough.
