Story
The Aire Valley Against Incineration group are fundamentally opposed to the introduction of an incinerator into the heart of our Aire Valley.
On Tuesday 23rd May 2017, AVAI applied for a judicial review against
Bradford council's decision to approve the planning application for the Marley incinerator.
We have been given expert legal advice that we have a very strong case and if successful, this will overturn the planning application.
The judicial review process is very expensive and it is only with the
generous help of the public that we have been able to do this - thank you
all for your generous support so far!
AVAI are committed to keep fighting to stop the incinerator, however, we
will need to raise an additional £25,000 within the next eight weeks to
bolster our existing campaign funds and allow us to continue the fight.
Our reasons to fight:
* The council have decided to approve the plans for a huge incinerator that will be burning industrial and commercial waste from the Bradford District
* We want to save schools, nurseries, recreational grounds and care homes from the harmful emissions this plant will emit
* We want to safeguard the health of our communities now and for future generations
* We want to encourage our local government to look at other options of waste management that have a lesser impact on the environment
* We want to protect our Heritage asset; East Riddlesden Hall from harm
* We don't want to be guinea pigs who pay the price for an incinerator being built in a valley - an unknown quantity across all the scientific data

I had leftovers for lunch so here's what I would've spent on a sandwich. Every little helps. If we all did this we'd be at target in no time. Keep up the good work - I'm so proud of the AVAI group.
