 Sir

 

The letter below has been sent to me from the Save Our Service website. 

 

Please would you be able to print it on your letters page or include in your editorial in order to help the plight of the lockkeepers and their families as well as the river users and riverside residents. 

 

Yours faithfully

 

Gillie Bolton

Re: Thames Lock Keepers Residences

                                                          

A web site has been launched with the purpose of raising public awareness with regard to the proposed Environment Agency plans for the River Thames Lock and Weir Keepers.

 

Recent articles appearing in both the national and local press, has generated much interest and concern. We are writing to ask all your readers to go to www.saveourservice.org and learn what impact these plans will have on all river users, Thames-side communities, together with the lock-keepers and their families. Through this site we are urging everyone to join our parliamentary petition to stop these plans from becoming a reality.

 

Thank you to all the readers that have already taken the time to look at our website and join the petition.
