Around 70 people attended the Reclaim our Moors Stop Grouse Monoculture rally at Redmires on Sunday August 18th, organised by Unite the Union and Moorland Monitors. Here is Cllr Peter Gilbert’s speech. Lots of information can be found on the Moorland Monitors website. You will find out about stink pits, snares (now banned in Wales and Scotland but not England), Heather Burning and the pollution it causes here in Sheffield, raptor persecution, how Grouse Monoculture impacts climate change and much more. Please write to your MP about these issues.
