Threat of Closure Hanging Over the Kabin Community Centre

  • Submitted by: Alison Johnstone, Lothian, Scottish Green Party.
  • Date lodged: Thursday, 24 August 2017
  • Motion reference: S5M-07263

That the Parliament expresses concern at the threat of closure hanging over the Kabin Community Centre at Loanhead in Midlothian just seven years after opening; considers that the charity-run centre provides a valuable resource for the community, offering facilities for parents, children and other interest groups and welcoming hundreds of people and over a dozen organisations every week; understands that the centre's finances have deteriorated over a number of years; notes the centre's online appeal to raise £21,000, and urges Midlothian Council and the Scottish Government to consider how they can assist the centre at this difficult time.
