The Parish Council is hosting a public community meeting to bring residents together to help shape a strong and informed objection to the proposed application for an additional 180 houses at Crossings, Chapel-en-le-Frith.

This is not a council meeting – it is a community-led discussion and planning session. The council and many residents have serious concerns about this development, particularly around;

• Environmental damage

• Loss of green belt land

• Increased traffic and congestion

• Flood risk

• Overdevelopment in an area with already limited facilities

We are inviting anyone who has expertise, experience, local knowledge, or simply a strong interest to come along and contribute. We would especially welcome people with knowledge in:

• Planning

• Traffic management

• Flood management

• Environment or biodiversity

Meeting Details:

Location: Chapel-en-le-Frith Town Hall

Date: Thursday 11th December

Time: 8:00pm start

We aim to finish by 9:00pm, but due to the importance of this issue the meeting may run on until 9:30pm at the very latest.

This is a vital opportunity for the community to come together, share concerns, and help build a clear, well-evidenced objection. Your voice, skills, and passion can make a real difference.

Please share this post to help spread the word and encourage others to attend.
