Steph Exell and the West Swindon Labour team have been out collecting signatures from people who support the petition to keep Lydiard Park in the care and management of Swindon Borough Council.
If you share our view, and the view of fellow Swindon residents, that Swindon's country parks should stay under council care and management and not be "off-loaded" as per documents available on the council's website.
According to the Swindon Borough Council website:
The Conservative Leisure and Culture Change Programme document, published in April 2013, states that the Council will “explore and identify further commercial and/or charitable opportunities at the Platform, Lydiard House and Park, Coate Water Country Park, Stanton Park and STEAM”.
Sign our petition to safeguard the future of Lydiard Park
