By Barbara Mansfield, Mitcham Park

I would like to follow up your main letter in last week's edition.

The 16-page A3 size Rediscover Mitcham brochure was supposed to be delivered along with My Merton to all CR4 households.

Some estates, streets and houses did not receive the brochure.

Sent out at the busiest time of the year for most of us, with a questionnaire to be returned by December 14. Generally statistics say there is five per cent return rate.

The present administration is intent on putting the last nail into Mitcham. In 2005 they tried to turn Fair Green into a concrete jungle.

The Conservative administration managed to stop destruction of our heritage.

This time the Labour administration are intent on dissecting the town centre with buses and cars making it a dangerous place to enter for the elderly, disabled, mothers and grandparents with prams and young children and destroying the new cafe culture that is growing.

Look at Mitcham with your eyes; forget your ears.

We have some beautiful areas, spring and autumn is glorious.

We are a multicultural area, we live together in harmony, use the shops we have or we will lose them.

The Mayor of London has given Fair Green £3m, Mitcham has no large spaces for multiple conglomerates and there are only eight empty shops. We are so much better off than many other towns.

Talk to the ward councillors of the Cricket Green and Figges Marsh and tell them Mitcham needs tweaking but not destroying.

Let's use the money wisely.
