π³ SAVE THE TREES π³
Here in Groomsport village, we're urgently petitioning the Department of Infrastructure to reconsider potential plans to cut down some of the street trees along Groomsport Main street (a few of which are pictured below), desiring them to look at alternatives to repair & prevent pavement damage, which is the reason for the plans.
After a great united effort between Groomsport Village Association and Discover Groomsport, a few hundred physical signatures have been given already. If you'd like to add your voice, please consider signing this - for instance, one additional page is in our church porch (see picture), which is always open during the day. Please also feel free to write to your elected representatives, of all parties, to gently encourage them to use their influence in support of this too.
We hope this to be a really positive example of 'people power' and solidarity, achieving a positive difference and saving these precious natural lives! π³
