Hi guys. I organised the March for Marden, and have messaged Melanie Woodward off her FB post regards this today. I am happy to share any intel we have gleaned over the last 18 months. We instantly actioned a committee, self funded our own mail drops, knocked on every door to sign the petition (which sadly you won't be able to do) I also facilitated the traffic survey which we had done around a year ago for technical data. My thoughts having had a look at your literature mailing and website (and I will be honest so please don't take it against me!) is that it's too emotional, lacks the technical data that you would need to fight this at a planning level. How did it get thrown out at Horsmonden? Wasn't it to do with an animal welfare group getting involved and showing video evidence of cruelty? Have you contacted that group in Horsmonden? let me know timelines, action plans etc - oh and this forum is way too public I could be the planner for fridays who has just tapped into your comms. so take it offline on whats app with a small committee (you prob already have done that) any one can DM on FB :) oh AND GOOD LUCK !
