Petition – Save the Pinn Walk In Centre

Over the last 10 years, the Pinn Medical Centre, in Pinner, Harrow, has served over 250,000 local residents, from 8am-8pm, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, when they have been unwell, as a fast and effective alternative to our already overloaded local Accident & Emergency department.

Harrow CCG are looking to slash funding for this invaluable local resource, to the point where the Pinn Medical Centre may have to close its doors to the local community. Without this precious funding, by the end of the year, the walk in service will probably have closed. As far as we are aware the Harrow CCG is making no extra provision for patients to be seen elsewhere if this service closes. We believe that everyone should have 7 day access when they are ill.

We strongly believe that the residents of Harrow deserve an 8am-8pm Walk in Centre, open 7 days a week, 365 days a year.  PLEASE HELP US TO STAY OPEN BY SHARING AND SIGNING THIS PETITION.

Archaeological Dig in Waxwell Lane Car Park.

Some of you might have been wondering this week why large trenches had appeared in Waxwell Lane Car Park.

As part of the planning permission to develop the Car Park, an exploratory dig has been carried out.

For those of you hopping that a distant cousin of Richard III would be uncovered, no such luck!

A few artefacts were recovered but not of great significance.

Members of Pinner Association Committee along with representative from Pinner Local History Society and Pinner Local where given a tour of the site on Wednesday morning by the archaeologist.

Three trenches were dug to a depth of 16” (40cm). The location of the trenches was decided by analysing historic maps.

What we did discover is that there is a lot of clay.

The car park should be back to normal on Monday.
