Spitfire Saved, Biggin Hill Closed | London News

Bromley Council just flipped its plan — instead of shutting down the beloved Spitfire Youth Centre, it’s now eyeing the closure of the Biggin Hill Children & Family Centre to consolidate services there. The move comes after officials deemed the Biggin Hill site too small and inconvenient, while Spitfire’s larger space, better parking, and proximity to key services like the NHS clinic make it a more viable option. Community advocates, who fought hard to save Spitfire, are relieved but confused — thrilled it might stay open, yet unsure how the transition will work or who’ll be affected. A council vote looms next week, with community consultations likely to follow if the plan passes. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
