Pastor Matthew Ashimolowo, Senior Pastor of Kingsway International Christian Centre (KICC) speaks about his church purchasing the old cinema at Bakers Arms in 2002 and taking nearly two years to bring it to acceptable standards set by English Heritage.

He narrates, "The Planning Authority in Waltham Forest agreed we could use the building for church providing the KICC congregation used the Stanley Road car park and did not use local residential roads... Naturally, we signed up to these obligations."

Today, KICC caters for over 1,000 people over the Sunday
morning services and holds other services during the week, all open to the public. It provides a wide range of voluntary services to the community including Legal Counselling, Career Advice, Pre-Marital Counselling, Bereavement Counselling, Welfare Provision and support, Extra Curriculum School Support, Parenting Classes, Youth Work and more.

"We are now a fully integrated part of the Bakers Arms Community. We know many of the traders. They are our friends. .... Between us all, we cannot allow this [car park closure] to happen."
Kingsway International Christian Centre (KICC) Matthew A. Ashimolowo London Borough of Waltham Forest

WATCH THIS great video made this month (in a 1930's style) ...
WIth the rich history of the Balers Arms area - the erstwhile great pub, the almshouses, ... - what remains today is a car park conveniently located right behind a maze of shops. No wonder these drivers are furious about any plans to close the car park. It does not appear that local MP (Stella Creasey), Council Leader (Clare Coghill) and Deputy Council Leader (Clyde Loakes) care about the community there. Get the message out to them today - this car park is not for the taking. London Borough of Waltham Forest

Page Visitor Post ... by David Goodbun (.goodbun.9)

"The green giant and all the little greenies are at it again. [Saw and read the] article in the Bakers Arms Citizen paper I laughed so much I was crying, but it's all true. I do hope Councillor Loakes rides around the borough on his bike showing off his medal from the EU for completely F-----g our roads up with mini Holland will it be renamed after Brexit to Loakes folly. Just remember when the next borough elections to vote to remove these councillors."

With customers from within the borough and from afar, these traders/business owners have reason to be concerned, should the car park be taken away.

Don't Destroy All These Businesses and Community ...

Closing the Stanley Road Car Park will have a devastating effect on local traders and the community as a whole. It is the last available parking facility in the area.

Every day, the car park is heavily used with vehicles driven by shoppers, traders and their employees.

Our appeal is to the Chief Executive of Waltham Forest Council to think again. Don’t destroy the most cohesive and harmonious community in Waltham Forest.
