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.

SURVEY OF WOKING'S NURSING HOMES LAUNCHED

Will there be enough nursing home places in the future for Woking's older people? Nationally, the number of care home places for the elderly has fallen consistently since 1996. There was a further loss in this last year of 10,000 independent, NHS and local authority places. In spite of projected increasing demand, the number of places in the southern home counties fell by 2.6% - which is getting on for twice the average for the country as a whole.
