Introducing the London Social Centres Network

Building Liberation | 18.03.2002 12:51

The London Social Centres Network [SCN] was formed
in January 2002. Like the name suggests it is a horizontal network of occupied and legally owned
social centres, Resource centre, Infoshops, Radical
bookshops and independent community centres in London.

The network is open to individuals and collectives who
want to build a society of non-capitalist social relations
and work on a non-hierarchical, anti-authoritarian mode. There are currently a few social centre projects
initiated some occupied and some which are going to
be financed. Here is a list:

Social Centres build solidarity in communities and
attempt initiate political discussion about the environment, privatisation, capitalism, state, racism
sexism and homophobia. The Radical Dairy Social

London Action Resource Centre: lil correction

Hi all,

Just a quick one to say that LARC is at 62 Fieldgate St, not 57, (actually the numbering's a bit confusing on the street already).

A bit of an update to what's coming up there will follow shortly. Send us an email if you want to be on an occasional mailing list...

Bye for now,

Lil
