Save Wandsworth Museum

"Wandsworth Council are displaying a disgraceful disregard for community, heritage and education with their proposal to close Wandsworth Museum and West Hill Library. I grew up using both the museum and the library and believe the next generation should be"

"Please do everything in your power to keep the Wandsworth Museum open to the public."

"Stop cultural vandalism"

"My children have enjoyed visiting Wandsworth museum with us as a family and their school, as a school resource, for many years. It would be a travesty to close this important public resource and deny them, and future children, a link with their past. Sure"

"The electorate must be consulted and there must be a public debate"

"A valuable cultural,educational and social resource,central and welcoming. Please think carefully. Don't close it--if anything -develop it."

"People deserve the right to know our heritage."

"I am strongly opposed to the closure of this museum which helps to foster a sense of community in Wandsworth"

"I cannot understand why the Council, with its huge reserves, would choose to cut funding to such a valuable resource for local schoolchildren. My children have always enjoyed their visits to the museum and it is a great opportuntiy for them to learn about"

"horrified by the shortsighted decision by the Wandworth Council"

"This is part of a national trend, a short-sighted policy for 'saving money'. Let's save our heritage. There are always financial benefits too if the whole complex picture of local business, benefit to schools etc. is taken into account."

"the museum is a treasure and important to the children of the Borough. How can they think of getting rid of it."
