CAMPAIGNERS gave a cautious welcome to an opportunity to save a much-loved theatre.Thurrock Council this week threw out an olive branch to supporters of the Thameside Theatre in Grays, which is under threat. The council had considered including the theatre in its fire sale of council properties to help it fill a £34.3million financial black hole.

However, the council is now suggesting relocating the library registry office to a new civic building with the possibility of allowing a community group to take over the theatre.
