The campaign committee met last week to discuss the likely areas of focus for the coming year.
We agreed on the following priorities:
- to continue campaigning against quarrying in Bengeo Field, Rickneys and neighbouring areas both through engaging in Minerals Local Plan public consultation (expected in October) or any potential appeal from the applicant whose proposal was recently rejected
- to continue campaigning for restoration of Rickneys quarry areas
- to support engagement in responding to development plans in HERT4 (which includes Bengeo Nursery) through Bengeo Neighbourhood Plan.
As always – we are looking for people who are interested to be involved in a specific activity or overall. We are also looking for volunteers happy to help as press officers. Please get in touch also with any ideas and suggestions!
