I am writing to support the designation of Swanscombe Marshes as a SSSI site. I live locally in Northfleet next to Swanscombe and a designated wildlife protection area will be wonderful for local people. This is the only wild nature space left locally, everything else has been built on. We need this area for our well being aswell as protecting the environment. Also, for our young people, who have no other wild nature place they can visit locally. Swanscombe is home to many endangered invertebrates such as spiders, bees, beetles etc and to many breeding birds. This makes it such an important place for nature and for local people to be able to visit.
