800 Lizard Orchids to be dug up! Can you help prevent this?

Kent Botanical Recording Group (KBRG) are urgently trying to raise awareness of a proposed major development within Betteshanger Country Park near Deal in East Kent.  It would be located on top of Britain’s second largest population of Lizard Orchids and will have many other adverse effects on the flora and other wildlife, including Fiery Clearwings, bats and Turtle Doves.  The deadlines for the two planning applications involved are 28th and 31st October.
