Helen Morgan speaks at Whitchurch #SaveOurCivic rally

North Shropshire MP Helen Morgan this morning joined protestors campaigning to save Whitchurch Civic Centre at their #SaveOurCivic rally.

The campaigners gathered included Mayor Andy Hall, who introduced Helen to speak as crowds gathered on the High Street.

Helen Morgan, MP for North Shropshire, said, “The strength of opinion in Whitchurch is incredibly clear – we need to Save Our Civic.

“The thriving High Street in Whitchurch is a testament to how much the community supports local independent businesses, and the Civic Centre has a long history of drawing people in. Shutting it down without a replacement would send entirely the wrong message.

“It was great to see that the protest was being run in a positive way, with a focus on action and securing the funding needed to have a community hub in town for years to come. The campaigners have my full support.”
