Story
No Wey Incinerator Action Group is working on behalf of concerned local residents and businesses to oppose the Veolia application which seeks to shut down our local recycling facility near Alton and replace it with a massive industrial incinerator. We will encourage as many people to respond to the planning application as we possibly can.
Our primary aim is to ensure that the community has access to expert planning advice upon which to base their formal objection during the statutory planning process. In order to pay for this specialist advice, the Action Group is raising funds.
We have already raised a fantastic £29,200 through personal donations made offline. The target shown here is what we hope to raise through Just Giving to meet our overall £40,000 funding target.
If we raise more funds than we need, excess funds will be donated to local causes in consultation with local Parish Councils.
Thank you for your support!

1 month agoWe have now raised £29,200 through offline donations, which is hugely appreciated. The target for Just Giving donations has thus been amended to reflect the balance of our overall target of£40,000. Our specialist consultants have been appointed and briefed. They are currently doing some pre-work in advance of the receipt of a planning application so that we are ready to go as soon as it arrives. Thank you for your continued support.

We need to invest in ways of reducing our environmental impact, starting with not producing such volumes of waste. Packaging materials + disposable items, recycle, refill bottles, compost, reuse.

Not needed in such a lovely rural location, the amount of heavy lorries throughout this area especially Farnham and the already busy A31.Pollution will be wind driven and unhealthy.
