Dear @DwrCymru.....You are not wanted in Pontsarn. Find a more suitable site for your massive treatment works - not in the middle of a much-loved beauty spot in #MerthyrTydfil @WTSWW @walkthebeacons @RamblersCymru @RSPBCymru @NatResWales @Dawn_Bowden @GeraldJonesLAB @MerthyrCBC
Have you had this letter from Dwr Cymru/Welsh Water? If you have, please let us know - and where you live. If you haven't had it, also let us know. We need an idea of where letters have been sent, to gauge how extensive their consultation efforts have been. Thanks very much. PP.
A love letter to @DwrCymru Have a heart and don't try to destroy the picturesque countryside of Pontsarn with your atrocious plans for a massive water treatment works: facebook.com/groups/pontsarn…

Visitors to the Vaynor Show helped send a very clear message to @DwrCymru: "Wish you WEREN"T here!". Postcards addressed to the CEO were filled in with personal messages of objection and posted from Pontsarn. If you would like to send one, please drop us a message.
Lots of support at the Vaynor Show for the @ProtectPontsarn campaign to stop @DwrCymru destroying the landscape with a massive water treatment plant. Well done, everyone!

Vaynor Show is a little affair, but very important in the grand scheme of things. The same's true of all the smaller shows all over the UK.
It's places like this, cheaper, local, gentler, that often foster interests for those who may not easily connect with agriculture.
In just weeks, we have collected 1,574 signatures (plus many more on paper petitions being circulated throughout Merthyr). Please share with family, friends, groups. bit.ly/3vCpQis If you need paper copies of the petition, please let us know. @DwrCymru
Here you go, @DwrCymru
