Story
The growth strategy for Oxfordshire proposes 100,000 new houses by 2031 (two cities the size of Oxford); plus 85,000 new jobs, and at least 200,000 more people, a 30% increase in our population - higher than the anticipated UK population growth of 10%.
In order to meet these top-down targets rural Oxfordshire is being sacrificed. Yet the public have not been properly consulted.
We believe there is an alternative vision for the future of Oxfordshire – one that is not based on forced economic growth, but which focuses on meeting local peoples’ real needs, not speculator greed.
Need not Greed Oxon is a coalition of local groups and individuals who are campaigning for a future that respects the views of local people, plans for “need not greed” and protects the environment.
Please support the campaign and have a voice in the debate about the future of Oxfordshire.
