Aim: We need to act now to protect our National Heritage.

"We need to act now to protect our heritage"

Since the changes to the National Planning Policy Framework in 2012 our beautiful open spaces are under threat from developers.

You are probably witnessing it where you live. Across the land there are groups of people fighting to protect their environment. We need to take a national stance against this desecration of our countryside.

Not only are our green spaces at threat, but so are many National Heritage sites and listed buildings.

This is currently the situation at Kedleston Hall, a Grade I listed building, which dates back to the 1760’s. Kedleston Hall is under threat as developers have submitted 2 planning applications to build on land within the Kedleston Estate only 500 metres away from Kedleston Hall itself.

A local action group was formed, called Kedleston Voice who is fighting to save and protect this heritage site.

The developers have appealed against a refusal by Amber Valley Borough Council. However your support is needed to help raise money to fund a robust legal fight to dismiss this appeal.

With your support, not only could we save Kedleston Hall, but it means a positive result could help protect other National Heritage sites from development in the future.

We are at a pivotal moment, which could be nationally significant. Please help us to stand up for our National Heritage, lets stand up for what’s right!

We hope you will realise the implications of this application and help us to oppose the developers to protect not only Kedleston Hall, but our National Heritage!
