Support for Coalsnaughton Evacuated Residents
To all Coalsnaughton residents affected by the ongoing evacuations
I want to reach out today with sincere understanding and solidarity.
The news shared last night has been deeply upsetting for many of you, and I know how much uncertainty, worry and disruption this continues to cause for every household.
Please know that you are not facing this alone. The Federation is here for you, and we will continue to stand beside you through every stage of this situation.
With your new Residents’ Association now formally constituted, your voices are stronger, clearer and represented with purpose.
Many of you are dealing with fear, frustration, exhaustion and unanswered questions. These feelings are completely valid. What matters now is that you have support, clarity and a place to turn — and you do.
We will keep pressing for accurate information, fair treatment for every resident, and proper communication from all agencies involved.
If you need help, guidance or simply someone to speak to, please reach out.
Your wellbeing and your rights remain at the centre of everything we do.
Our community has shown remarkable strength, and we will continue to face this together
June Anderson, Chair of CTRF and our Executive Board.
