Guest guest Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 Hello Everyone, Thank you for letting me join your group. I run a small animal sanctuary in Scotland with currently 66 horses and ponies, 2 cows, nine pigs and numerous rescued dogs and cats, peacocks, hedghogs and any other animal or bird that needs a safe place. There are plans to build an Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route with a dual carriageway running through our land. We stand to lose 20 acres and the road would have a devastating effect on the sanctuary and on the environment. There is a strong public feeling that the road is not necessary or in the wrong place and a Public Inquiry is being held at the moment, but even if the Reporter recommends that the road should not be built, the Scottish First Minister can overturn his decision. One of our neighbours, Liz Bracegirdle, has drawn up a petition to the Scottish Government at http://www.gopetition.co.uk/online/22833.html We are hoping to get a huge number of signatures from all over the world and your help would be so gratefully appreciated. Please sign it and pass to all your friends. With thanks, and best wishes, Mavis.
