Petition to stop closure of Stembrook Lane Shopping Arcade at Co-Innovation, Dover, during pandemic
|
A petition has been raised to stop the closure of a start-up businesses centre.
The Stembrook Lane Shopping Arcade, at the Co-Innovation Centre in Dover, was meant to close this August but petition organiser Charlotte Cornell says that should be delayed while there is a pandemic.

By this morning it had attracted 520 names out of a targeted 1,000 after being set up on Monday night.
Mrs Cornell told KentOnline: I think it is totally the wrong time. This is now causing emotional turmoil for the traders on top of the financial turmoil they have had from the pandemic.
