Save Houseboat Yoghurt's Mooring

We are petitioning Wandsworth Council to extend the houseboat Yoghurt's mooring on Nine Elms Pier in its existing position at the downriver end of the pier.

Why is this important?

The catamaran Yoghurt was one of the first boats at Nine Elms Pier and was converted into a houseboat by owners Bill and Sue Dunster and their family in the 1980's. It has been a community hub as well as a loved home for many years. The tenants on Yoghurt are very active members of the community and believe in fostering its health for the well-being of all of those who live within it and in the wider Nine Elms area.
In 2011 Yoghurt was granted a temporary 5 year mooring, it is due to expire in September 2016. We are asking Wandsworth Council to extend this mooring and allow Yoghurt to stay in it's current position on Nine Elms Pier.
(*In addition to signing the petition we would greatly appreciate letters of support from you if you felt moved to write one. Please send them to [email protected] or if handwritten address to : Yoghurt, Nine Elms Pier, Tideway Walk, London, SW8 5PZ. We will present them along with this petition to Wandsworth Council.)
