Housing Weekender
New Cross, London
Saturday 26th April and Sunday 27th April 2014
The Housing Weekender on the 26th and 27th April 2014 is a collaboration among groups from across London, who work on a whole range of housing issues including private renting, access to welfare, squatting, co-operatives and social housing. As the housing crisis grows steadily deeper, and those is power fail to take the necessary action to secure the future of the city, this weekender aims to bring people together to build a movement of practical solidarity, to resist social cleansing and reclaim the city for the people who live here.
