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. 

Save our green belt

Do you agree with us that the green belt needs to be preserved, brownfield sites prioritised, and schools, transport, and GP places guaranteed?

Ward Councillor judges Scarecrow Festival

In September the village of Fornham All Saints held its Scarecrow Festival. The whole community takes part and it was a great honour to be asked to judge the scarecrows. It took me four hours to walk through the village judging all the scarecrows that had been made, and it was a very difficult choice. The evening was the highlight with many villagers sitting on the village green for drinks and a meal while being entertained with music.
