Can we help Gill and Royston please

The comment below was left for me from Gill and Royston and it speaks for itself - be good if we could all support them! Thanks everyone! Laine xxxxx

Hi Good Luck for the interview Elainey! I wonder if you could do me a favour. I have worked for the last ten years at Crosshill Special School in Blackburn, the Council are after closing us down under BSF (Building schools for the future) and we are campaining against it. they want to build a super school (a big campus!) but our pupils thrive far better in a small school with our mainstream links. We have just put a protest song and video on youtube, if you go on and type in Crosshill it comes on ! We are also going to be on Granada Reports on Monday at 6 pm. We are collecting signatures and we have collected over 7,000 so far. We have our own Crosshill School website  and people can sign the petition online. Could you alert people on AOL journals. We would love your support. Thanks Elainey ! love Gill and royston xx
P.S. Paddy from Emerdale came in to visit and we have his support and the local newspaper "Lancashire Evening Telegraph' is publishing articles about us and being in full support!

It's sad when they close places down that still function well, if not better, than a new place would. Did you hear that the Alex closed on Friday? We're now at a huge hospital in the middle of the Sussex County site. It's a beautiful place but it's not got that unique feel of the Alex. We're doing a lot of GOSH's work with kids coming from all over the country so maybe I'll see you there sometime! I've posted a few pics of the inside and outside in the last couple of entries in my journal. Jeannette xx  http://journals.aol.co.uk/jlocorriere05/Welcometomytravels/
