Episode Details

Save Greenwich Equestrian Community fights to keep the local centre from sale, accusing the council of ignoring residents and refusing further meetings. The campaign has a fully funded plan, backed by Sport England and the British Horse Society, but the council insists on selling the centre to close a budget gap. The centre, opened in 2013, has stables for twenty horses and advanced riding facilities. The campaign leader, Tao Baker, criticized the council for breaking a promise to explore a community takeover. The council leader, Anthony Okereke, defended the decision, citing government funding cuts and the need to protect essential services. The dispute highlights tensions between community needs and council finances.
