Meeting for Station Road, Higham Lane and Main Street residents

60 Bed Care Home Coming to Stoke Golding
That’s what it says on the Avery Healthcare website (“subject to final planning approvals”)  https://www.averyhealthcare.co.uk/new-developments/Avery Healthcare have stated that they want to build a 60 bed care home with 34 assisted living bungalows on land to the south of Station Road off Higham Lane (As534 on map below). 

Avery have been very active recently surveying access off Higham Lane and we also know that they are in pre-application discussions with Hinckley & Bosworth Council. Publicly they are keeping their cards very close to their chest but they could submit a planning application at any time and time to respond may be short.

A major development – is that what the village wants / needs? Does this concern you? If it does, please come along to a meeting on Tue 11th Dec, 7:30 at the Methodist Hall. We can bring you up to speed with what we know and work out together what to do next.

Can't make the meeting but would like to know more? Email actionsg@hotmail.com and we will get back to you.

We have focused on residents in the immediate vicinity as we wanted to get the meeting under way quickly and get our group up and running before Christmas. We do want to engage with the whole community and we would welcome input from all and in particular from people who want to get actively involved.
