Oxfordshire has launched a new campaign dubbed "Need not Greed Oxon" This is a campaign dedicated to protecting Oxfordshire’s rural environment and they will be giving an informal presentation on 11 May from 6.30pm in the Town Hall Upper Chamber.
Need not Greed Oxon is a coalition of 26 local community groups from across Oxfordshire. CPRE Oxfordshire provides the Secretariat. The group is campaigning against a “growth at all costs” policy that they believe has led to a county plan that envisages building at virtually double any previous rate, and threatens to overwhelm the county's infrastructure, services, landscape and communities.
Need not Greed urges local people to have a voice in the debate on the future of Oxfordshire and to comment on the Strategic Economic Plan produced by Oxfordshire Local Enterprise Partnership. The group invites everyone to attend the presentation evening in May to find out more. You can also find out further information about the campaign by visiting the Need not Greed website.
