PETITION UPDATE

Still going...

Denise Bickley

Sidmouth, United Kingdom

FEB 3, 2018 — Hello, can I trouble you to share the petition again, on Facebook and Twitter, and by emailing anyone you think might be interested? 

There will be a meeting of 'interested parties' in a couple of weeks, and I've been invited, so it will be a good time to present the petition - let's blitz it and go for 10,000 signatures!

Thanks
D
