Harmony over the Rex

MEMBERS of the Stratford community forum are planning to put together a small working party to help add residents' input into the Rex music venue redevelopment.

Councillors have agreed to plans to add a new gallery, restaurant and disabled access to the venue, in Stratford High Street. Rex staff also want to improve the outside image of the run-down venue.

Residents have not always reacted warmly to the venue but members of the community forum said they would be interested in working with staff to improve the public perception of the Rex and let them know what residents would like to see.
