The Campaign to Protect Rural England is pleased to see at last the Government's commitment to improving the environment shown in the 25-year plan launched last week, but we need actions, not simply warm words to ensure the Government provides the means to ensure we use resources wisely, from plastics to land.
A High Court judge asked Arun District Council to explain its conduct and ordered it to compensate a parish after housing plans the authority approved were overturned.
Thank you to all who joined us in the wonderful Council Chamber at Littlehampton Town Hall. We were delighted to see so many people willing to turn out on such a cold night who share our concerns about the mounting threats to Arun’s precious countryside, villages and towns. We were delighted to welcome Tony Whitbread from the Sussex Wildlife Trust and discovered so much about the uniqueness and wonder of the Arun Valley, its flora and fauna.
