Reference: MP2s (Mill Hill nr Barton in Fabis) Sand and Gravel provision

As a regular weekly visitor to the Attenborough Nature Reserve, I am writing to you to say that I am shocked and upset that this beautiful area of open countryside,. home for many species of Wildlife, is being proposed for Sand and gravel extraction.
I object strongly to this proposal.

Walking here and enjoying watching the variety of birds and farmland species which are an urgent conservation priority, makes me feel relaxed, helps with stresses I have. It's such a beautiful, peaceful place to enjoy nature. I bring my family here. It saddens me deeply that this could be taken away, as it affects so much when we are in a time of changing climate. Surely this is not a suitable area for sand and gravel extraction. Many species depend on it for survival, with a huge disrutpion of what is an area of Sites of Special Scientific Interest and Sites of Importance for Nature Conservation, let along impact on communities and visitors to this wonderful place.
The Attenborough Nature Reserve resposibly educated and encourages families, people of all ages and abilities and future generation to appreciate and respect nature in helping conserve our natural surroundings and wildlife. In our declining 21st century landscape this must be taken seriously.

PLEASE SAY NO TO PROPOSAL MP2
