We need more contributors, to see our funds rise to meet our target.

Dear all

The first part of the Application for a Judicial Review seeking permission to proceed has been lodged and served upon Wrexham County Borough Council and Castle Green Homes Limited in good time. The matter has been placed into the High Court to try to get the decision of the Planning Committee on the 7th February 2022 overturned.

We thank everyone who has donated so far and can tell you that two individuals have continued to fund this application themselves, which was submitted to the High Court in Cardiff on the 21st March 2022, before the 25th March deadline originally imposed to raise £30,000. The ball is now in the Council’s court to respond to the Action. We have not utilized any of the money raised so far.

We wish to thank the 105 donors from within and outside the village who have already helped us in raising £12,000 in just 6 weeks, but now we need to push this matter further and harder. We need to continue raising funds and need your help to progress further. We were one of the top 5% of JustGiving fund raisers in March and raised £12,000, 40% of our target, with your support via JustGiving, cheques and cash donations.

It will take quite a few weeks for the matter to be considered by a Judge in the High Court but in the meantime the need to raise fighting funds continues.

There is still a lot of work to be done by the local residents, Lawyers and Planners who are acting on our behalf, so let us make a determined effort to raise the funds to cover potential costs, in order to try and protect the residents of Rossett. This is why we still need your help. A success in this Court Action will benefit almost everyone in Rossett in some form or other.

As things stand there is currently no time limit on fund raising and with your help donations over the coming weeks and months would put us within reach of our target by the time the Court get to our matter in about August/September 2022.

The ball is now back in the Council’s court and there are likely to be several more weeks or even months to enable further contributions. Please encourage your neighbours and friends to help us and make a donation as every little helps.

Thank you so much.
