Tottenham march to drum up support for safe havens
9:10am Saturday 9th June 2012 in News By Hermione Wright
A march to encourage businesses to sign up to a scheme to protect young people from trouble will go ahead today.
More than 80 people are expected to walk through Tottenham High Road in support of the community scheme CitySafe Havens.
Businesses will be given the chance to become an unofficial shelter for young people if they encounter problems on the streets.
The havens were one of the recommendations found after the Citizens’ Inquiry into the London riots, led by the campaign group North London Citizens.
All are welcome to join the march, which starts at Tottenham Green at 11am and is expected to end with refreshments at White Hart Lane stadium at 12.15pm.
