John is working alongside Wickersley ward councillors and local groups like Silverwood Colliery Heritage Group and Silverwood Nature Reserve to call on the landowners to better protect the nature reserve.

SIGN OUR PETITION TO PROTECT SILVERWOOD NATURE RESERVE

The former Silverwood Colliery site has become a much-loved green space, with trees, a lake and thriving wildlife.

But there are problems with off-road vehicles causing damage and anti-social behaviour.

Local groups and volunteers are working hard to protect the area and they, John and Emma have called on Ogden’s, the landowner, to protect the perimeter with fencing and boulders.

However, so far Ogden’s haven’t stepped up so we want your help to send them a strong message about how much local people value the reserve.
