It was great to be invited back to West Lodge School in Pinner, where we were also joined by pupils from Pinner Park and Cannon Lane primary schools to discuss their concerns about the local environment.
Having recently visited the River Pinn, the pupils were keen to share with me some of the things they had spotted, including waste and dishwasher detergent. This is something that should not be polluting our local rivers, and so I suggested that if further details were shared with my office, we could make enquiries with the council.
Furthermore, we also discussed ways in which Parliament has passed legislation that supports the environment and biodiversity. I have also promised to give Pinner Park and Cannon Lane some birdboxes, which will enable the support and protection of local bird wildlife and further their environmental cause.
It is always a pleasure to visit the pupils at West Lodge, and I look forward to doing so again in the future.
