It is understood that Sefton Council may be planning to make staff at Botanic Gardens redundant. Such plans could see the outsourcing of the aviary and the fernery as well as causing significant detriment to the planting within the park. The latest plans throw into real doubt whether Sefton Council know what Southport residents value and hold dear.  We the undersigned oppose Labour-run Sefton Councils plans to cut staff and services in the Botanic Gardens.
