The Spitalfields Trust presents a SAVE NORTON FOLGATE Benefit Concert
A night of lively entertainment and celebrity guests in celebration of the Spitalfields Trust’s campaign to save the ancient Liberty of Norton Folgate in Spitalfields - as beloved of William Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe, Charles Dickens, Sir John Betjeman and Suggs McPherson who will be performing a special number as part of the evening.
This concert is in aid of the Trust’s Fighting Fund to defeat British Land in their current attempt to obliterate Norton Folgate under a hideous corporate plaza.
After Tower Hamlets Council rejected British Land’s proposal unanimously, Boris Johnson overstretched his powers to overturn this decision, but the Spitalfields Trust have brought the Mayor of London to a Judicial Review on 26th April which challenges the legitimacy of his behaviour.
At the concert, delicious food and drink will be available for purchase, catered by Leila's Cafe.
