SESRO - Government Announcement

Sign our petition today and together help the WBCT build a blue and green corridor for all to enjoy.

The Government has announced that ‘the strategic need for SESRO has been demonstrated’.  The Rt Hon Steve Reed MP, Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, made the announcement that marks a major turning point for the project, indicating that it will probably go ahead. 

It is now vital that the canal is included in the plan and again we ask for your support by sharing this petition with your friends and family, on social media and at events. 

The Wilts & Berks Canal Trust is a charity.  Our work is of direct benefit to your local communities and the environment.
