Many of us are alarmed to see the amount of mud in the lake during Portishead’s hot summers, shown in the picture below. The ducks and swans in the lake seemed even more concerned at their disappearing habitat.

We see it as unacceptable that there is often more mud than water in the lake and demand that it is dredged, for the benefit of the people and the wildlife of Portishead. If you agree then make sure to sign our petition.

I/we the undersigned are calling on North Somerset Council to dredge the lake at the Portishead Lake Grounds as we think the amount of mud is unacceptable and are concerned about its effect on the local wildlife.
