Reporting on the MAC job losses story The Stirrer finished with this nugget of information: “It had been hoped to maintain a programme off-site during rebuilding, but The Stirrer’s been told that the costs and risks associated with doing this were prohibitive.” If true (and it’s a “if”) this means the MAC will be completely silent for those 18 months, though of course this wouldn’t prevent other organisations doing things in Cannon Hill Park.

    How very very sad if this turns out to be true.

    Since I moved to a new place pretty much on the edge of the park I’ve been a regular buggy-stroller there at weekends. It’s a great place and having the Mac there gives a focal point to the park.

    I’d be interested to see if other organisations could look at the park as a potential venue for other activity.
