Thank you for your continued support in our efforts for preventing the destruction of Kew Herbarium! 

So far RBG, Kew senior management have shown no signs of accepting the views of Kew’s scientists and changing the intention to move the Herbarium off site. We need to take our actions further. 

 

If you live in the UK, please consider raising this issue with your MP.

Here is how to do this in 3 steps:

1. Go to https://www.writetothem.com/ , enter your postcode and click on the displayed MP name.

2. In your own words, keeping it short and clear, tell your MP how the planned move of Kew Herbarium would affect you & ask your MP to raise this with the DEFRA minister.

3. Fill in your email, address and name and click on SEND.

 

Parliament is on recess until 4th September, but if there is enough support amongst MPs on this issue we will be able to trigger a debate to challenge the decision to move the Kew Herbarium.

Thank you once again for your help!
