Story
Dear Friends,
In Cumbria the nuclear industry tell us that we have one month to "have our say" on the design of the proposed new reactors. Meanwhile inbetween Blackpool and Preston is the Springfields site which produces nuclear fuel from uranium hexaflouride. The Springfields site is gearing up to produce "high burn" fuel for the proposed new reactors. The reactors would be AP1000's - there is no secondary containment on these reactors, just a big water tank on top which would drizzle down "passive cooling' in the event of an accident. With your help we would like to commission a report into the dodgy reactor design. These Westinghouse Toshiba AP1000 reactors should not be built anywhere...and the plan is to build them on greenfields and floodplain next to Sellafield! Join the Resistance and Stop Moorside. All donations big or small will be so helpful ...together we can Stop Moorside. If you cannot donate, then spread the word, sign the Stop Moorside petition at 38Degrees and most of all RESIST!

This is "the boggles" otherwise known as the Bog Holes or the flood plain of the River Ehen. Beautiful, there are waders here, lapwing, curlew, plovers, northern pintail and more... The last place where ANY development should take place let alone untried untested reactors. Thank You to Everyone who has donated... More News on the AP1000 report soon!!

The Barn Owls of Beckermet say Thanks!! All donations big and small are so valuable to the Stop Moorside campaign. We have secured two reports - one into Health impacts and one into the dodgy reactor design. With your help we would like to secure a third into the ethics of building new reactors whilst the waste problem will not go away INTO ETERNITY. Baby Owls of Beckermet Thank You once again !

Dear Friends, thanks so much to very one for all the generous donations. With your help we have secured an expert report into the dodgy design of the nuclear reactors being proposed for this Lakeland village. It is almost overwhelming to think of what is being proposed but together WE CAN, WE MUST #STOP MOORSIDE. The image is of sheep dipping in Kirk Beck, Beckermet, site of the proposed "biggest nuclear development in Europe"
