  • Stop The Boris Evictions
    Because more than 20 families are about to be made homeless with nowhere to go. These are mainly nurses and people who work in schools and local care services and are on modest incomes. Most have paid their rent and lived in their perfectly good homes for years. They are receiving no assistance from the Mayor in finding new homes. Because of local rental costs, most will have to move away and remove their children from local schools. This is social housing controlled by the Mayor that should be preserved: not destroyed in favour of high price luxury housing! See BBC report http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-29574993

  • No New Arundel Bypass
    Any route of a new road will be hugely damaging to the environment, cutting through farmland and ancient woodland, or damaging Binsted village and part of Walberton. This is countryside that has been labelled too precious to lose by previous government. The road will cause more pollution and it will also cause new congestion - it has been proved that new roads bring more traffic. We believe that local people would prefer the traffic problems here to be solved by other means which are achievable and would provide an acceptable compromise.

  • Save Halewood (Knowsley) Greenbelt land
    KEEP OUR VILLAGE A VILLAGE. PLEASE DO NOT BUILD ON ALL THE BEAUTIFUL FIELDS SURROUNDING OUR VILLAGE. PLEASE KEEP THE LAND SAFE AND PROTECTED FOR THE FUTURE GENERATIONS OK KNOWSLEY RESIDENTS TO APPRECIATE. Why is this important? What it would mean to the local community:  The loss of a tremendous amount of Greenbelt and farmland.  The loss of wildlife in the woodlands.  The loss of valuable open spaces.  Disruption of pathways.  Loss of natural break from the other nearby communities, creating an ugly urban sprawl.  An over capacity for local schools and doctors.  Heavy traffic on local roads which are not suitable for the amount of housing proposed. They are already heavily used and always in a poor state of repair.  More excessive housing would increase the carbon footprint.  The village would lose its heritage.  According to National surveys Knowsley is already the 10th Unhealthiest place to live in the country! Knowsley  Keep Knowsley Cleaner, Safer and Greener. We urge the council not to consider building on the Greenbelt or farmland, but to utilise many of the other concrete areas within Knowsley. These would more than meet the current housing demand.

  • Save The Old 'Boys' Home
    'The old Hereford Working Boys Home in Bath Street which gives so much visual identity to the area includes the work of three of Hereford’s most characteristic Victorian architects – George Haddon, who designed the original building, William Cheiake, who more than doubled the size of the establishment in 1885-6, and George Godsell, who made later additions including the ‘Meadows Memorial Hall’, the most recent use of which was as the local register office. The Working Boys Home was opened in 1877 for ‘orphans and other voluntary cases of boys from 9 to 14 years of age in a state of destitution, or growing up uncared for, under evil influences’. The boys were cared for, trained, and where possibly placed with employers. They were paid for their work and Post Office savings accounts were opened for each boy. In 1891 there were 109 boys aged between 9 and 15. Of these only thirteen came from Herefordshire, the rest came from all over the country, the largest number, 29 being from London. By 1904 there was accommodation for 400 boys. The Home closed in May 1933 & buildings sold to Herefordshire Council

  • Save Nelson House Grimsby
    Nelson House is a sheltered housing block that is a community which cannot easily be replaced. Shoreline does not have the housing stock available to replace this community and its residents need special care due to their age and infirmities. Despite this and over 60% of the residents voting to keep their homes, Shoreline continues to plan to evict them all and destroy the area that many have lived in for years.Shoreline continue to put finances before this community which has made their feelings very clear during the so-called consultation.

  • Save Whiston's Greenbelt
    Knowsley Council are planning to sell off thousands of acres of beautiful greenbelt land between Whiston, Cronton and Huyton, so that Redrow Homes can build thousands of houses. We suggest that Knowsley Council would be far better to use brownfield sites first, rather than sell off our valuable land for developers to make a fat profit from. The infrastructure around the area cannot cope with such a huge increase in houses. There are no jobs to support the increase in people, and public transport/road links are already full to bursting point. This development will also cause problems for people trying to register with GPs, schools, local amenities, local hospital services, as well as an increase in demand for services from the council itself. We cannot afford to lose one of our last remaining green spaces and all of the wildlife living in it. This will be crippling for the local area, as well as the areas around it such as Prescot, Cronton and parts of St Helens. Once it's gone, it's gone.

  • STOP the demolition of Earl's Court Exhibition Centre on public health grounds
    Local residents and neighbourhood businesses DO NOT WANT the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham Planning and Development Control Committee to approve the Reserved Matters Application Ref 2014/03232/DET due soon, before a full independent public health impact assessment is carried out. If any demolition and reconstruction of this HUGE 77-acre West London district is to go ahead, the site and its neighbouring areas will suffer ground contamination, noise pollution (heavy demolition traffic + the accumulative impact of noise), vibration and risks to health during asbestos removal. Furthermore, air pollution in this area, already regularly breaching European air quality standards, make air quality monitoring stations for Hammersmith and Fulham residents essential.

  • SAVE THE WANDERER
    It's part of the history of Molineux. On Tuesday the plans to demolish The Wanderer were revealed by a local paper. It’s a tragedy to lose part of the Wolves’ heritage and get a car park instead. Express and Star says: "The historic Molineux Street building used to be a popular haunt for thousands of Wolves fans but closed last year and sold to a mystery buyer. But it can now be revealed that Wolves bought the building from Enterprise Inns and have submitted an application to the city council for its demolition." http://www.expressandstar.com/news/2014/09/30/wolves-pub-to-be-demolished/
