I've only just come across this but apparently part of the the publicly owned land managed by the forestry commission in Mortimer Forest is up for development with a proposed 68 chalet holiday park. I'm not against rural development and the benefits it can bring to the the local community but this is blatant vandalism.
Some of you may have done the Mortimer Forest trail race which I believe is in the FRA calendar and be aware of the beautiful area already and the miriad of rare fauna and flora it supports. If so you may want to sign the petition.
