Pls RT some great news!
Our first ever litterpicks were a huge success. In 3 hours, 40 adults & kids plus 8 dogs came & helped pick the litter in Sefton Park where we filled 17 bin bags. So much love for the park!

Contact us if you’d like to get involved for the next sessions!

I've signed the petition calling on the government to stop Forest Holidays building luxury holiday parks in our forests, will you? https://t.co/BphDtzINtJ

42,000 Local Wildlife Sites in England could lose their policy protection in new draft planning rules. Please ask the government to change their proposals: https://t.co/tZRtIFY1Ax #UnprotectedSites #ActSwiftly

At the time that this pic was taken in Oct 17 the waterlogged field smelt so bad and there was visible evidence of toxic pollution & people had to restrict their own & dogs access to it. There had been so much rain, the familiar hydrocarbon sheen sat on top not hiding.. https://t.co/esN9SnWivZ

Good Afternoon from Sefton Park!
This is one of the parks daily visitors.
We have to warn you to watch out for what your doggies are drinking!
Behind her is 'The Old Farmhouse Field' where a large tank of diesel was spilt and lay there for 6 months before an attempt at clean up.

We are midway between the Spring equinox and Summer solstice which is known as Beltane in the Gaelic seasonal calender.

Wishing you all a beautiful Beltane as Spring unfurls into Summer! x

Liverpool City Council have now been contacted with an F.O.I request.
Neither they, or SK Events and PR who also profit from this mess, have so far admitted any liability or concern.
Pollution cant be covered up easily.
Lets get this festival out of this park and keep it out!

@oobergrafik @AngelCakePics @Moggpix @LiverpoolTweeta @LiverpoolParks @liverpooltrees @Beau_Liverpool @LivFoodDrink who was it please?
if only it was that simple

[Stop Polluting Sefton Park @SaveSeftonPark]

@charcharcatpig @AngelCakePics @Moggpix @LiverpoolTweeta @LiverpoolParks @liverpooltrees @Beau_Liverpool @LivFoodDrink @mayor_anderson The second pollution was in Sep 2017, and with the April event site still not safe, they moved the festival to another field. The field was churned up, and the ditches it created full of oil and diesel. and patches of dead land left were stalls were based. Grass wont grow back

[Stop Polluting Sefton Park @SaveSeftonPark]

@charcharcatpig @AngelCakePics @Moggpix @LiverpoolTweeta @LiverpoolParks @liverpooltrees @Beau_Liverpool @LivFoodDrink @mayor_anderson They then claimed that after many months of the diesel seeping further into the field. they retested the ground and the test then came back positive for toxic waste. so their contractors sub contacted a toxic waste specialist, and it was all removed successfully. Impossible!!

@charcharcatpig @AngelCakePics @Moggpix @LiverpoolTweeta @LiverpoolParks @liverpooltrees @Beau_Liverpool @LivFoodDrink @mayor_anderson However this only seemed to occur after complaints, and one park user and dog walker, contacted the environment agency. We believe they should have done this immediately after the incident. Very dubious. They've also stated that it was not possible for the pollution to move.

@charcharcatpig @AngelCakePics @Moggpix @LiverpoolTweeta @LiverpoolParks @liverpooltrees @Beau_Liverpool @LivFoodDrink @mayor_anderson Only if the persons (body) they are in contract with admit there is an issue that was caused by a breach and pierced a tank of diesel,
The first big spillage was a unfortunate accident....a protective mat used to protect the land dislodged and pierced the tank of a truck.

At a critical time in our precious planet's history, it seems mindless that we are encouraging corporate events into green spaces like our park.
Sefton Park is a habitat that has many wild residents including hedgehogs, foxes, voles, squirrels, and birds of all varieties. https://t.co/pLCISGriSD

Hedgehog sightings fall despite efforts to preserve habitat
