So PLEASE donate just £3 (or more if you can!) to this Crowdfund so we can PAY FOR MORE OF THE PUBLICITY CARDS that we've been delivering door-to-door. That way, we can inform more people throughout Thames Ditton about the Petition and about our new Facebook Group!
Too many perfectly good houses are just being bulldozed and replaced by unsuitable, out-of-keeping blocks.
This isn't "affordable housing" -- it's out-of-control over-development to make a quick profit!
Maybe you or someone you know also sent an objection to Elmbridge Council about a specific building development that badly affects you.
But even though hundreds of people have now signed, there are many more people throughout Thames Ditton who still need to hear about our Petition.
So if you can donate just £3 on this crowdfunding website, we can do exactly that!
If we raise more, we can then PRINT MORE PUBLICITY CARDS ABOUT THE PETITION to deliver more cards door-to-door to households THROUGHOUT Thames Ditton!
At the moment, groups of voters/residents are just fighting their own small local battles opposing a development near them -- without really seeing the big picture of the over-development that's happening all over Thames Ditton.
We can cover the costs for printing and for distributing the cards if people are willing to chip in just £3 -- or of course more if you're able!
Isn't £3 a miniscule price to pay for making a really strong declaration to the authorities that THAMES DITTON WON'T BE A PASSIVE VICTIM of all the excessive, unsuitable over-development that's gradually wrecking its unique character?
It'll take a minute to contribute that £3 on this website. Click the purple "Donate" button and fill in the box with your amount.
Thank you for your support!
HERE'S OUR ONLINE PETITION. PLEASE SIGN AND GET YOUR SPOUSE / PARTNER TO SIGN TOO! THEN TALK TO YOUR NEIGHBOURS ABOUT IT! :

Here are just two recent examples of current building plans strongly opposed by local residents.Two perfectly good houses to be bulldozed and replaced by blocks with 17 flats. Dozens of objection letters have already been sent to Elmbridge Council: tinyurl.com/yd3gmwaw and https://bit.ly/37dY1QS
There are two further large bulldozed sites: one on Kings Drive and a second one on St Leonards Road. And what are we eventually going to see at the huge currently flattened building site on the corner of Portsmouth Road and Thorkhill Road??
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH !!!
