Cuts to public services across the UK are severe. But in Camden this week, it’s the changes to childcare that are making the most noise. A protest at the Town Hall on Wednesday the 23rd of Feb was followed by a “feminist bail-in” at Natwest bank on Saturday – organised by the protest group UK Uncut.
They transformed the Camden High Street branch into a creche to highlight how the money propping up the banks is being taken from front-line public services. CCRadio’s Harriet Bird joined the protest and heard how the cuts will affect Camden parents.

South Hampstead Against The Cuts
CCradio’s David Kirkwood went to Rowley Way last week, to see what was behind South Hampstead Against The Cuts. He found a lot of people with very strong views on what is going on. They are very strongly opposed to the proposed cuts to services in Camden and to reductions in benefits.

What's On: week beginning 27th November 2010
Demonstrate at Camden Town Hall on Wednesday 1st December at 6pm. Camden Council is proposing to cut £27 million off services because of government funding cuts. This would mean cutting a lot of services that are very important to vulnerable groups of local residents. Camden has about £100 million in reserves. Some of this reserve should be used to continue to fund services that we know are important like luncheon clubs, youth clubs, drop in services for a further 12 months. Government cuts to rent support, fuel allowances, travel for disabled people and to other services will also hurt vulnerable people. Until we can see the impact of those cuts, we should keep other safety nets in place. DO THE RIGHT THING CAMDEN
