FAQ: What can you do?

You love living in Rye! You want to see it retain its seaside character! You want to be involved! Well, here's what you can get your teeth stuck into:

* LETTER WRITING! The goal is to have our objection heard (with an overwhelming roar) even before any plans are submitted. The best way of getting your voice heard is by writing a personal letter from your own personal view. If that's too daunting, feel free to use one of the many templates provided to the left.

* WRITING TO NEWSPAPERS! This can either be a letter to the editor or commenting on media articles online. We have provided links to various articles (on the left) that allow comments to be posted. The more people comment and write in, the more likely our campaign will continue to get coverage!

* VOLUNTEER! The committee is committed but, let's face it, sometimes the tasks are huge! If you'd like to be involved send an email to dixonkatrina@hotmail.com and volunteer. We often need help with envelope-stuffing, participating in community events, letter dropping, manning tables at markets. If you have an idea for an event, let us know!

* DONATE SERVICES! We desperately need access to a printer, photocopier, envelopes, postage stamps, paper. If you feel you could help out with any of these (and more!) send an email to dixonkatrina@hotmail.com and put your hand up!

* TELL EVERYONE! There are still people that don't know about this issue, including locals, holiday makers and tourists. We need everyone to know so that those concerned for the future of Rye can have a voice.

* ATTEND TOWN MEETINGS & EVENTS! Stay informed and get involved in your local community.
