Thereis a range of existing community space in Wembleyincluding religious and non religious facilities. Somefacilities successfully rent out community space toprovide revenue for management and maintenance;however, others lack revenue funding and are inneed of renovations. Dennis Jackson Centre andWembley Youth Club have closed due to cuts infunding.9.8 The Infrastructure and InvestmentFramework, prepared on behalf of the council tosupport the policies and proposals in the LDF,identifies specific infrastructure needs, includingsocial infrastructure, for Wembley as well as therest of the borough.
