We know that @LBRUT has tough decisions to make. But they are destroying a community resource that provides wellbeing, biodiversity and food security for future generations, all because they didn’t do their job properly. Shame on you councillors and commitee members.

@LBRUT need to be held to account for their lack of action on grave reuse over the past two decades. They’re taking the lazy option. @munirawilson @Gareth_Roberts_

Thank you @samueljlovett @thetimes for the article in today’s Sunday Times 🙏🏻 highlighting our campaign to save the last remaining allotments in Teddington from needless destruction.

@LBRUT They did the exact same on the flyover next to Homebase and must have made a fortune when they lowered it from 50 to 40 (including me) with one tiny sign before the camera and no notification that it was being changed that I saw

Great to see @LBofHounslow appreciating the wonderful value that allotments bring to the local community. Come on @LBRUT do better…

@LBRUT could have implemented alternative strategies since 2018 but did not act and are now planning to destroy biodiverse habitats and community lifelines as they’ve run out of space. Why should our community and environment have to pay the price for this?

@LBRUT could have looked at alternative strategies since 2018 but chose not to take action and are now having to urgently destroy biodiverse habitats and community lifelines as they’ve run out of space. Why should our community and environment have to pay the price for this?

Great article about the movement away from traditional burials due to sustainability reasons. “We’re essentially creating landfills” was the quote from one funeral director. https://t.co/1HLazZtTUm @sciencefocus

Beautiful day in Teddington today for some leafleting and poster putting-up. ☀️😎 Please let us know if you have somewhere you could place posters or fliers to help spread the word #saveteddingtonallotments #teddington #richmond #allotments #twickenham

[SaveTeddingtonAllotments @SaveTednAllotmt]

We had a great day out collecting signatures in Teddington yesterday. Several hundred more added to the offline petition and just a few away from 400 on the online petition. Thank you to everyone who stopped and chatted and offered their support. Please continue to share

[SaveTeddingtonAllotments @SaveTednAllotmt]

We’re going to be on Broad St in Teddington collecting signatures for our petition this Saturday from around 11am. If you haven’t managed to sign online come to see us and help us save Teddington’s remaining allotments from destruction! #saveteddingtonallotments #teddington

We, a group of concerned local residents, have set up this page in order to raise awareness of Richmond council's decision to close the last allotments in Teddington on Shacklegate Lane. Please sign and share the petition. https://t.co/bYjHLjo8xs

[SaveTeddingtonAllotments @SaveTednAllotmt]

The Shacklegate Lane allotment site was established over 120 years ago, and is the last remaining site in Teddington. With new land for this purpose being difficult to find, it does not make any sense to let an existing site go.

If you are a borough resident please do sign this petition to save the Shacklegate allotments from being bulldozed to provide more cemetery land.
If you don’t have a Richmond account get in touch and I’ll bring a paper copy. https://t.co/nc8Zq94B73

[Shacklegate Traffic @TrafficShackle]

The environmental and societal impact of this decision is significant.

[Shacklegate Traffic @TrafficShackle]

@LBRUT the planning meeting for Shacklegate allotments has completely missed the point that 60% of the burials are for non borough residents. It is NOT for local residents #teddington

[Shacklegate Traffic @TrafficShackle]

@Teddington_Town @TeddingtonNub @metpoliceuk can you please send someone down to sort all the illegal parking which is causing gridlock on a emergency services route

[Shacklegate Traffic @TrafficShackle]

@LBRUT this is exactly why local residents are opposed to the cemetery expansion. No one wants this kind of disruption on our doorstops. How on earth is this allowed? #teddington
