Sending this on behalf of the 'Save Meldreth Manor' Group
How Lucky Are You?
How lucky you are to be able to walk
To pick up a phone and be able to talk
To grasp an object with no one to aid
To live in a world where you are not afraid
What a gift it is to have sight and to see
All the wonderful colours between sky and sea
To run in the park and kick up the leaves
With rain on your face in the autumn breeze
What joy it is to watch as you dance and sing
For this gift to our children we would give everything
So how can you help our children today?
What is it that we are trying to say?
It is simply to help us to win this campaign
Meldreth & Orchard Manor need to remain
If you could only see the transformation
As these children learn basic communication
It takes a lot of patience and specialist care
There is not another place that can compare
Teaching the young to learn how to have fun
And help them move on when the teaching is done
All praise to SCOPE for the quality of care
But now we need SCOPE to listen and prepare
A proposal to save such a wonderful place
As Meldreth & Orchard can be SCOPE’s saving Grace
