- The court date for fabric's appeal against Islington council's decision to revoke its license has been set for Monday, November 28th. The club today confirmed the appeal date, while also revealing that it is calling on a legal team headed up by Philip Kolvin QC and assisted by licensing solicitors Woods Whur. Both have offered their services at a "significantly discounted rate," fabric says. In addition to challenging Islington council's decision, fabric plans to push for changes to the UK's current Licensing Act. The #savefabric campaign to raise funds for the appeal has surpassed the £250,000 mark. The club has today published a second transparency statement that details where the money is going.
