CAMPAIGNERS are vowing to continue to fight plans to demolish a community centre as more details are revealed on the project. Castle Point Council is set to demolish the Paddocks Community Centre, Long Road, Canvey and replace it in a £3.28million project. Residents across the island have complained since plans were first touted in 2018, insisting the current site should be revamped rather than demolished and replaced. New details released by the council this week show a large hall containing seating for 300 people and a stage, with the hall also be used for sports including badminton and bowls. There will also be two smaller meeting rooms on the ground floor for different activities and community groups.

MULTIPLE mass vaccination centres across south Essex have now “paused” the rollout of the jab due to a shortage of vaccines. Both the Runnymede Hall vaccine centre in Thundersley and the vaccine hub at the Cliffs Pavilion in Southend will be shut from today. Runnymede Hall will not re-open until May 4 while the Cliffs Pavilion is aiming to re-open for more vaccines on Monday. Bosses at the Essex Partnership University Trust, which is heading the vaccine rollout, confirmed individual sites being put on “pause” is standard procedure depending on the availability of vaccines. Castle Point council leader, Jeffrey Stanley, said he trusts the decision of NHS bosses to temporarily close the Runnymede Hall site with the vaccine rollout proving a success so far.
