The Parish Councils of Grendon Underwood, Edgcott & Steeple Claydon held 3 open public drop in sessions to provide information and guidance on how to object and provide objection grounds that the Planning Committee of the Local Planning Authority [Buckinghamshire County Council].

On 4th August the Prison Working Group hosted an open public exhibition of ways to object in the Grendon Underwood Village Hall: a far better attendance than was expected, much discussion & lots of commitment to object.

On 6th August the Prison Working Group hosted an open public exhibition of ways to object in the Edgcott Village Hall: another well attended event, lots of information gathering and advice on well structured objections.

On 10th August the Prison Working Group hosted an open public exhibition of ways to object in the Steeple Claydon Village Hall: another wonderful turnout. 

Thanks to all who came along, all volunteers, Greg Smith, MP, Angela Macpherson, Bucks County Councillor and Frank Mahon, Bucks County Councillor.
