A wrecking ball next to the words save our green belt

Save our green belt

The Government has doubled the housebuilding target for Stockport, weakened the protections on a third of our precious green belt, and is forcing the Council through Ministerial Directives and threats to adopt a Local Plan which will let developers target green belt first. 

We oppose this government’s ‘developers charter’ and need your voice.  Do you agree with us that the green spaces that make our area special need to be preserved, and new housing should first be built on brownfield sites, after the infrastructure is provided with schools, improved transport, and GP places guaranteed? Help us send a message to Government and make Labour listen to local people.

Find our more about the local plan on our frequently asked questions page.

That is why we have been facilitating better cooperation between all the organisations such as CHESS, Sanctus, Helping Hands Essex, faith groups, the NHS, Essex County Council and so on. . After the 2019 election, we organised a homelessness forum that brought together over 30 organisations around the table to discuss how to tackle rough sleeping in particular. Since then, the co-operation between all the agencies involved has been MUCH better. There is now a monthly meeting where charities working with homeless people can inform and influence council policy. Any group involved in this topic that has suggestions to feed into this is welcome to get in touch with the Council or one of the forum members. .
