Please ban use of dangerous pesticides in Southend and surrounding areas

The use of glyphosates has already been banned or restricted in 8 countries. It is not acceptable that ourselves, our children and the animals we share our community with are being routinely exposed to these chemicals whether we like it or not.

This is a matter of great importance for those of us who care about each other's health, the health of our children, our pets and nature in general including our vitally important bees.

There are healthier alternatives available.

Thank you for your time.
