Story
We are raising funds to help protect Penrhos Nature Park. Its wealth of biodiversity is at risk from development into a holiday village. In an area of outstanding natural beauty, 25% + of our woodland will be felled.
Penrhos Nature Park is situated on the beautiful coastline of Holyhead, Anglesey. The park is home to may rare species of flora and fauna. It is also the home to a stronghold of RED SQUIRRELS amongst many, many other species. Yet it is at risk from developers. The planning application went against 11 Welsh policies When it was submitted. Letters of concern came from THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE TRUST and RSPB, alarmed at the plans in process. Local residents objected and fought, and continue to do so.
This has been an extraordinarily long battle, campaigning for what we believe has been determined unjustly by our Local Authority.
*NOW THE GOOD NEWS*
After years of hard work, it has finally been approved by a Judge to bring our case against the Local Authority and the interested party Land & Lakes (Anglesey) to 'THE HIGH COURT OF JUSTICE' in CARDIFF on Tuesday 27th FEBRUARY 2024.
However, we now need to raise further funds for court fees, as our council (Isle of Anglesey County Council) in their wisdom have requested the courts to 'DOUBLE' our fees, citing that because we are a 'grassroots campaign' we can fundraise! It makes one question are they afraid we will win........
YOU BET!
WE ARE BEGGING YOU ALL TO DIG DEEP......WE KNOW TIMES ARE DIFFICULT, BUT WE HAVE COME SO FAR AND CONTINUE TO NEED YOUR HELP TO STOP THIS PLANNING APPLICATION.
PLEASE, LOOK IN YOUR HEARTS TO DONATE TO GET THIS THROUGH COURT....WE MUST STOP THE DESTRUCTION OF PENRHOS AND ALL THAT LIVES WITHIN........THANK YOU, EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU. DIOLCH O GALON..
