Please take this email as my objection to the building plans currently being discussed for the WEC. The area is widely used by not only the local community, but for the community further afield.
If the current pandemic has taught us anything it's that our green spaces and local nature reserves and parks are needed. Not just for the wildlife and ecology but also for the mental and physical health of the families and communities.
I work with individuals who rely on this area for their fitness and mental well being.
To take this away would have a devastating effect on a veryarhe (very large) proportion number of the community.
Please reconsider your plan and help to support the Earth and local community in moving forward and surviving for the generations to come.
There are plenty of brown belt areas that are in need of renovation and can provide much needed housing without destroying the very environment we need to survive.
