How can you help?

The River Garry is in a terrible state, if fact it is no longer a river, but at long last there is an opportunity for it to be properly restored.

 

You can help in several ways, for example you could

  • Sign the petition and also get your friends to do so
  • Write a letter of support to a local newspaper, e.g. the Courier, Perthshire Advertiser, Comment etc.
  • Write to or email a local politician (see below)
  • Attend one of the local politicians' surgeries
  • Most importantly, RESPOND TO THE OFFICIAL CONSULTATION ON SSE's APPLICATION ONCE IT IS PUBLISHED

 

Some members of the Scottish Parliament have already been consulted and have been supportive.

Please express your views to the MSPs and the local MP.
