Campers

They've done an amazing job. The guys at the parish council got straight on with the process at 10pm at night when they first started getting the calls (things must be handled in a certain way or the process can be frustrated and can take longer) and TVP were brilliant in supporting them by all accounts as have been CDC. It has taken larger councils far longer to deal with this kind of problem as you probably know. Mike, Josh and George, our amazing haywardens, were up there at 6.30am cleaning up and as you can see there are mountains of rubbish, I can't believe how hard the 3 of them must have worked. CDC are coming in later with specialist cleaning team to get rid the more unsavoury waste and the police are coming to get the abandoned caravan. Brilliant job everyone.

I don't understand your post Emma. I don't know why they aren't located there, full probably, and I'm also not suggesting they set up yet another camp in CSP. What I do mean is that it would have been better to sort out a permanent solution not a short term fix.

I just phoned the Parish Council to extend my thanks to all of those involved.

I am  sure we can all agree there should be a long term solution.

Whilst some people may suggest nimbyism, from a short term perspective, a load of Caravans turned up and clearly a number of organisations have worked together to get them moved on swiftly and I personally think their efforts have been impressive and require some applause.

Just passed 3 caravans plus dogs, kids, etc parked down on the layby in Denham near the motoway roundabout. Hope they're leaving and not planning to return.
