Please record my unwavering and full commitment to the protection of Halesowen's Green Belt in response to The Black Country Plan.

In relation to the current public consultation of the Black Country Plan I would like to make it clear that I support the proposed protection of Green Belt in Halesowen (Illey, Lapal, Uffmoor, Hayley Green, Coombeswood), Lutley and Foxcote.

I am local and have lived in Halesowen all my life, the local countryside is historic, scenic and good for walking amongst nature. The pandemic highlighted our open spaces, green belt and countryside as being essential for our mental health and general well being, although we recognised the benefits of our treasured green belt long before 2020.

It is essential that you recognise the importance of the Green Belt in Halesowen (Illey, Lapal, Uffmoor, Hayley Green, Coombeswood), Lutley and Foxcote to its local community, and beyond, by ensuring it is protected for generations to come.
