Bluewater Nature trail is a well loved green space, something which is very scarce in our over developed borough.

It has been a lifeline for many families during the pandemic and we only have 3 weeks to save it! 

Aqua Parks have put in an application to build a water park on the main nature trail lake. Not only will this destroy the biodiversity of the lake, it will disrupt and discourage the surrounding wildlife and increase the traffic and pollution to our already heaving road network.

The inflatables they intend to put in the lake may be temporary, the damage to 9 species of bat, 40 species of creepy crawlies, countless fish and nesting herons, geese, ducks and swans will not be. 

The nature trail is a rare tranquil spot with many memorials to lost love ones and just isn’t an appropriate place for a water park. 

Please sign this petition in a bid to convince Dartford Council to reject this application and ask Aqua Parks to consider locating their water park somewhere more appropriate. 

You can see more information on the application and also raise an objection directly on the Dartford Borough planning portal here.

In order for an objection to be taken seriously by Dartford council it must reference one or more material planning consideration, such as: 

• Nature conservation
• Traffic
• Noise

Thank you for your support
