Downside Community Center has been and continues to be at the heart of the local community. It helps bring people together, keep youngsters on the straight and narrow, keep local people healthy through exercise activities and allows the local community a welcoming space in which to build and maintain friendships. Dunstable does NOT need more houses at the continued expense of community and infrastructure.

The community centre is more important to the downside residents, than the building of new houses.I suggest D.T.C. consults all of the Downside residents before making any decision

We need the community centre, so many residents make use of it. More housing will add to the traffic chaos too.

Glad there is a petition to save such a great cause that helps everyone in the community who needs their services and much more!!

It is wrong to once again to increase housing in this area when the the downside community has already has parking and traffic problems. Clearly the people involved in proposing this project have very little knowledge of the good this community center does for the area. I am totally against the proposed demolition of this Center .

Providing even more social housing will certainly turn Downside into more of a socially depraved area. Southwood Road is difficult enough to get up and down; we do not need more traffic. Too many social problems as it is, don't need any more!

Yet again the people who have want to screw those who have not, how many more times will these so called elected officials ignore the wants and needs of ordinary people while they sip Champagne in their ivory towers totally oblivious to what normal peoples lives are like, this so called town council, who supposedly work on our behalf should be ashamed of themselves, not satisfied with destroying our town they now want to destroy the community and lives of the ordinary decent people of this once lovely thriving market town.Everyone needs to sign this petition and deliver a smack in the face to these idiots who are supposed to represent us yet totally ignore us.

This is an important centre for the community that is making a real difference. I fully support the need for it to stay open.

It has taken a long time to improve the estate, and the community centre has been central to the success. Anti-social behaviour will no doubt increase again if the community centre closes. The groups that use it will have nowhere to go.
