Petition

Every signature helps strengthen our campaign. Although signing the petition is not the same as submitting a formal planning objection, it demonstrates the strength of local feeling and shows decision-makers that the proposed development at Land North of Cockreed Lane is a matter of significant public concern. Together, our voices can send a clear message that this proposal deserves careful scrutiny.

Why Sign the Petition?

Our petition is about more than collecting signatures—it’s about demonstrating the strength of community feeling. A large number of signatures shows that local residents care about the future of Cockreed Lane and want to see any proposals for development carefully scrutinised.

While a petition does not replace the formal planning process, it helps raise awareness, encourages others to get involved and provides a clear indication of the level of public concern. Together, our voices can help ensure this proposal receives the attention it deserves.
