The Inkwell volunteer gardeners have made a wonderful space in this urban jungle. For the last 3 years it has been fantastic for the neighbourhood with the various fetes and fairs held there. The local community will be a poorer place if it is lost. Please don't let this happen!

I hope common sense prevails and the green space is saved and that greed doesn't take over. It's a really fabulous , valued community space used creatively for arts and a Green Gym provision which is a massive community asset.

I would urge councillors and officials to reject this application as the detrimental effect on the local community and the volunteers who have invested so much of their time and effort into creating a genuinely therapeutic (and productive) space. I arranged a visit to the gardens a few years ago by Alys Fowler (BBC Gardeners World presenter & author) and I'm sure she would be equally shocked at the prospect of losing such a fantastic resource.

Hundreds of people use this garden and space for numerous things throughout the year. To take this away will be an absolute rescuery for the local community and beyond. Its very presence touches hundreds of people in so many diverse ways!

As a local resident I wholeheartedly object to the planning application. These gardens play host to several community events throughout the year and more importantly are pivotal in providing a place for service users to take part in activities to promote mental well being. In addition to this, these gardens have been a rare inner city green space for as long as I have lived here and that is 30+ years. Do not allow this to change just so that developer can throw up some more buildings to line their pockets.

O no! This is dreadful! If there is a planning application- is that the link above? It won't work on my phone.... - we must all write a n objection on that too, signing the petition will not be enough!! I love Inkwell garden! It cannot be used for building!! There are loads of brown field sites which should be used first!!
