Hopefully see u there.
I am helping out as steward/ litter collection.
If anyone wants to help out on the day doing an hour of stewarding that would be welcome. Its just to be there if there are any problems.
Hopefully the weather will hold out. If it does you will not be disappointed. There will be a lot on. Plan is it will be friendly carnival atmosphere on the square.

UPDATE!!
So much has been happening, all positive mainly. We've all been busy with this- the contributions have been overwhelming!
The last minute final meeting was small due to the short notice BUT a few things were done, which is included below.
(Names of volunteers have not been included)
The BCA
We have some great news! the Black Cultural Archives - a space created on the back of campaign and protest wants to assist!
( BCA= a good example of regeneration!)
They will also be creating a live archive to document visitors on the day regarding Reclaim Brixton which is fantastic! Finalising this as we speak.
FORECAST
Forecast of rain is likely so be prepared, looking for a gazebo or two to protect some sound equipment.
A waterproof cable cover SHOULD be delivered today for Health & Safety.
SOUND
-A quality member of the public has donated a healthy kit.
-A second quality member of the public has donated funds for transport- still sorting
- 2 Brixton venues are providing some mics and channel mixer and DJ PA.
-We have a dedicated sound engineer for the day.
-We have two dedicated stage hosts
-We have a volunteered police liason regarding the sound to avoid seizure/noise issues

No. It's a spontaneous happening in a public space.
Call it what you want. You can even call it an illegal eviction if you want. It doesn't matter.
I remember that spontaneous band - brass section, etc - a few years ago, outside the Ritzy. Loads of publicity, maybe something to go with the market or the Ritzy ... cancelled at the last minute and people went to the pub.
It's a shame for the cost of £21.00. Invites another shambles.
