    Community Walk

    Join Us for a Community Walk – Protect Our Green Lung! 🌿

    As part of #GreatBigGreenWeek, we’re inviting residents to a Community Walk on Tuesday 10th June through the beautiful Green-lung area of Mount Bovers — a vital stretch of Greenbelt land under threat from development.

    📍 Walk Route: Follow the blue line on the map below — taking you through peaceful footpaths and nature-rich areas in and around Mount Bovers.

    🛑 The pink boundary marks the protected Greenbelt space that has long been safeguarded by Rochford Council’s Core Strategy — until now.

    This walk is about more than fresh air. It’s about raising awareness of the environmental, health, and heritage value of this cherished green space — and the importance of keeping it free from inappropriate development.

    👣 Bring your friends, family, and your voice — let’s walk together in support of nature, wellbeing, and our community.

    📅 When: Tuesday 10th June

    🕙 Time: 6:30pm

    📌 Meeting point: junction Mount Bovers and Main Road Hawkwell.

    All welcome to join us- walk leader Judith Clark. @followers

  • Hawkwell Residents Community Announcement

    Following a recent Parish Meeting attended by a large gathering of Hawkwell residents a vote was taken to force the local council to hold a “Parish Poll”

    As residents, the forthcoming Poll gives us  ALL the opportunity to say YES to the creation a Neighbourhood Plan which will help form the basis of  future plans for our local community and carries statutory weight as part of consultations on future housing developments such as the 350 houses proposed by Taylor Wimpey, to be sited on our beautiful greenbelt between Mount Bovers Lane & Gusted Hall Lane in Hawkwell

    This is not a political vote it is a Yes/No vote 

    “Do the you support the creation of a Neighbourhood Plan in Hawkwell Parish to help protect the village from unsustainable housing developments”

    We have tremendous support so far but need all the help we can get in opposing these plans to destroy our greenbelt, ruin our wildlife, landscape and heritage

    Every vote counts and your support as part of the community is vital in helping protect our village 

    Please, if you can, attend the polling station between:
    4pm & 9pm on 13th June and vote YES

    There is a wealth of preliminary work being undertaken ahead of this to fend of this potentially disastrous blot on our beautiful landscape – We are not denying the need for housing but we are fighting for housing to be located appropriately and not on our greenbelt in an area already clogged with too much traffic, local schools already oversubscribed and public services stretched to breaking point

    PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN AND SHOW WHAT AN AMAZING LOCAL COMMUNITY WE HAVE
