Rejected petition Bring the Olympic Flame to Marlow to honour Britain's greatest ever Olympian

More details

We wish the Secretary of State to intervene with LOCOG to include Marlow on the Olympic Flame route. LOCOG has decided that the Olympic Flame should visit Henley and Bisham Abbey, but bypass Marlow, the home of Steve Redgrave, Britain's greatest ever Olympian. It would be a wonderful sight for everyone in Britain if the Flame were to pass the statue of Steve Redgrave in Higginson Park on its way to Maidenhead.
