LANCASTER'S MP is backing the campaign to save a music group.
Ben Wallace is to meet with Lancaster City Council's ruling Cabinet to raise con-cerns over plans to evict the city's Musicians' Co-op from its historic Lodge Street home.
He says the co-op must have a firm guarantee it will get a new base before any action is taken.
Mr Wallace says: "Since the cabinet announced it was rescinding its lease agreement on the Musicians' Co-op building on Lodge Street, I have been inundated with mes-sages calling for a review.
"There is no doubt that the co-op is a much loved local institution and that this decision has left a bitter taste in the mouths of its many supporters."
He will meet city leaders on Friday to impress upon the council the importance of providing a cast iron guarantee that the co-op it will not be wiped out to make way for the proposed revamp of Lancaster's canal corridor by developers Centros Miller.
