I am writing to voice my support for the Green Wedges in my area. As a Thurnby resident, I know from first-hand experience, the importance and benefits of the Thurnby and Oadby Green Wedge. I believe that extending the Leicester, Scraptoft, and Bushby Green Wedge would be highly beneficial also.
The Green Wedge is protecting and conserving our landscape, our air quality and our environment's ecological diversity. In this way it has a clear and positive impact on physical and mental health in our communities.
The Green Wedge is not only protecting the landscape and quality of life in the here and now. It is a means of ensuring that future generations inherit clean air, a well-balanced ecosystem and a naturally beautiful landscape.
