IDEAS on the usage of the former Arcade site are being requested before the deadline closes.

Waltham Forest Council is urging residents to submit their ideas for the recently opened site on the corner of Walthamstow High Street and Hoe Street before the consultation deadline closes on September 7.

Questionnaires are available from Walthamstow Town Hall, Walthamstow Library or the Hoe Street Waltham Forest Direct centre.

Fight the Height campaigners are also calling for sketched impressions of what residents would like to see on the site, which will be included in the E17 Art Trail.

Ideas on a postcard must be submitted by Friday (August 28) to the Rose and Crown pub in Hoe Street, Walthamstow.

The postcards can be collected from the Rose and Crown pub and various shops including the information point at The Mall in Selbourne Walk, or can be downloaded from www.fighttheheight.co.uk
