Initially these boards were approved by the old Community Councils as a way of giving local residents information regarding surgeries, hustings, local events. Keys were issued to Ward Councillors and a few local activists.North Cross Road comes under Goose Green Ward. Over the years, the locks on many of the notice boards have been replaced but keys are not always given over to the original 'holders' Some do not have locks so anyone can post leaflets etc.
Years ago I asked for a key to help maintain the noticeboard on North Cross but was told only a couple of people have keys. One was the woman who runs Health Matters but she rarely seemed to keep them updated. A real shame it's now damaged as they can be very useful in showing what's on and local councillor details etc.

I've been thinking about the notice boards for while, so I was really interested to read these posts. They seem like such a potentially great and simple community resource, I'd be sorry to see them go. It's almost inevitable they'll be vandalised if they're not kept up to date, I suppose. I'm going to drop a line to our councillors and see if anything comes of it.

    • As a result of the Horizon scandal it now seems very clear that the Post Office management are highly disingenuous and not be trusted!  There needs to be a campaign launched to challenge the threatened closure, unless the Post Office can demonstrate beyond doubt that the branch is loss making - and even then it could argued that better management could address this. I hope the local media take this up and our MP  and a few demonstrations outside wouldn’t do any harm. Bad publicity can be very effective!         
    • Unlikely. It would take a little more than a bit of Milton to alter the pH of eighty-odd thousand gallons of water.
    • It actually feels as though what I said is being analytically analysed word by word, almost letter by better. I really don't believe that I should have to explain myself to the level it seems someone wants me to. Clearly someones been watching way too much Big Brother. 
    • Sadly they don't do the full range of post office services
