AIR CONNECTIVITY TO GUERNSEY AND THE UK MAINLAND ARE VITAL TO THE SOCIO-ECONOMIC SURVIVAL OF ALDERNEY, OUR BEAUTIFUL LITTLE ISLAND IN THE ENGLISH CHANNEL.

DUE TO COVID 19 OUR BORDERS HAVE BEEN CLOSED WHICH IS ESSENTIAL.

ONCE THESE BORDERS ARE AGAIN OPEN, THESE LINKS WHICH HAVE BEEN FRACTURED NEED TO BE RESTORED. PLEASE ADD YOUR VOICE TO SUPPORT THOSE WHO ARE SEEKING A SOLUTION. WE HAVE ALREADY COLLECTED 967 SIGNATURES LOCALLY BEFORE LOCKDOWN. WE NOW NEED TO GO ONLINE TO COMPLETE THE JOB. THIS PETITION WILL GO TO THE PRIVY COUNCIL (UK) AND THE DATA WILL BE USED FOR THAT PURPOSE ONLY.

IT IS VITAL THAT YOU DO NOT SIGN AGAIN IF YOU HAVE ALREADY SIGNED EITHER IN ALDERNEY OR BY EMAIL.

The climb toward our goal feels heavy and slow today. We need to reach two hundred and fifty signatures to force them to look at our situation. Please put this in front of anyone who cares about the future of our island.

My family have lived on Alderney for generations and it has never felt this isolated. Sort it out.

ALDERNEY NEEDS THESE LINKS TO SURVIVE. WITHOUT CONNECTIVITY THE ISLAND WILL JUST WITHER AWAY.

Living here is hard enough without the flights being cancelled. Fix the route.
