Riverside still needs your help!

We hope you don’t mind us sending you an additional message this month to let you know a bit more about the current situation with the Western Harbour Development and how you can best get involved to help protect Riverside’s future. 

Why is this important for Riverside?
In the previous plans for the area a road was proposed to run right through the garden centre, effectively closing Riverside down forever. Bristol City Council has now announced that they are ‘going back to the drawing board’, but Riverside still remains under threat by this development. The council has commissioned a creative programme called ‘Harbour Hopes’ to develop a vision for the future of the Western Harbour area. Please help us to remain part of that future!

Currently, the best way to help us is to leave a message of support for Riverside on the interactive map on the Harbour Hopes website. To add your voice to the many others who have already shared about what Riverside means to them, follow the link below. 

Move across the map to find us, or type ‘Riverside Garden Centre’ into the map’s search bar. You can click into the pins on the map to read other people’s comments. To make your own comment, click the ‘+ Add a comment’ button and fill out the form with your message. 

Spread the word
Help us even more by forwarding this email to others who may be interested in adding their support too. And you can follow us on social media to keep up to date with the latest news on this issue and other ways to help as things unfold. 

Thank you
We want Riverside to continue to be here to serve our local community for years to come. Thank you so much for your support.
