MARCH 2020
Cover illustration by armeet Panasar
Last month, streatham made
headlines with terror on our
streets. We are grateful to the
emergency services whose swift
action prevented carnage, and
all three victims are recovering.
thanks also, to those shopping
and working near the scene,
particularly the staff at streatham
Library, who helped ensure people
caught up in the incident were
safe. Within a week, people from
all parts of our community came
together to reclaim our high road
to show that streatham stands
together and will not be divided by
evil. read all about it on page 20.
