Southport MP, Damien Moore has today responded to a campaign by local residents aiming to keep the well-known Blundell Arms Pub open.
The Blundell Arms Group Campaign has been gaining momentum since last summer and is hoping the site of the historic pub will not be demolished in order to make way for a new housing complex in the area.
Local residents have contacted the developers and are hoping their plans for a Dementia friendly café in the morning with a wheelchair access garden for residents and patrons is successful.
Damien Moore MP responded: ‘I’m happy to support the campaign by Southport residents to keep the Blundell Arms open. The pub is an asset to the town and it is known by many generations of our constituency and it should continue to be known for future generations to enjoy.
‘The pub, and the proposed plans to include a care and wheelchair-friendly garden will also assist the community in tackling loneliness by acting a community hub.
‘I will continue to support the application put forward by campaigners, and I will do what I can to secure this assets longevity.’
The developers are open to ideas and are in contact with the group who are continuing in their talks and are continuing to oppose the demolition.
