Aero was invited down the other Sunday to Save Brixton Arches Campaign by Pins to help bring awareness to the redevelopment plans by Network Rail where a number of local independent businesses are under threat with closure & eviction due to a big hike in rent prices after the redevelopment.
Pins was approached by shop owner Jose Cardoso of A & C Continental deli who has been under the arches for 25 years, asking how could he highlight the issue with a big impact to reach a wider audience and pins suggested to get graffiti and street artist to paint the shutters supporting the campaign.
Here are some links related to the campaign:
