A man said he feels "betrayed" as he's facing eviction from a Nottingham community centre. Phil Merry, 39, has told of his anger after being notified that he could be evicted by Nottingham City Council.
He has followed on his dad's steps who has been going into the Mapperley Community Centre since he was 15. The Mapperley Community Association, formally Mapperley Institute, has occupied the building on Woodborough Road since 1957.

Mr Merry said: "We have been told to either hand over the keys that evening and let them consider the possibilities of relocating us, or the eviction notice.
