Ministry of Sound, one of the world's most iconic and important clubs, is in danger of having its licence restricted following a planning application by a London property developer.
The South London club celebrates its 20th birthday over the weekend of September 16th - 18th, but its future is in doubt after property developers Oakmayne filed for residential development opposite the club - which would threaten the club's licence.
According to MoS, the situation was summed up by Oakmayne boss Christopher Allen, who simply stated "Nightclubs come and go”.
Ministry of Sound Group CEO Lohan Presencer said: "When Oakmayne told us that 'nightclubs come and go', we were horrified. Ministry of Sound is not just any nightclub; it's the most famous nightclub in the world and the heart of a global entertainment business. These developers have cut corners at every stage and counter to their claims, they do not have the best interests of the local community at heart. We must do everything in our power to save our club and our business."
To help them fight their cause, Ministry of Sound have set up a petition for anyone who wants to help keep this British institution open for years to come.
You can find the 'Save our Club' petition at the Ministry of Sound website. So head over there, add your name, and play your part in helping to secure the club's future.
