Loving Lodge Lane
THERE will be a 3 day 'love-in'
for Liverpool neighbourhoods next week. "Loving Lodge Lane"
celebrates all that is good in the area around Lodge Lane and gets communities
working together while having some fun. The event started in 2011 in response to
media coverage of the 30th Anniversary of the Toxteth riots and was aimed at
making the area cleaner and greener. "It is an opportunity for local
people to show they love the area where they live. Loving Lodge Lane has been
growing each year and this year's event will involve a lot of cleaning,
greening, and positive community activity in the three wards around Lodge Lane."
said local Councillor Laura Robertson Collins.
