Mepal Outdoor Centre in Cambridgeshire may be forced to close its doors at the end of October 2012; this is due to a lack of funds. A support team is trying to do everything possible to stop this happening.

For further details see the Friends of Mepal blog: http://friendsofmepal.wordpress.com/

In the meantime we are trying to raise awareness of the potential loss of a fantastic local and regional activity centre. Please show your support for MOC by signing this petition

Unbelievable. The council needs to sort this out instead of just letting it close down. Fix the funding.

My kids have been going here for years. It would be a total waste to shut it down now. Keep these programs open for the next generation.

MEPAL IS VITAL. Stop cutting funding for local things that actually matter.
