A group of concerned local residents started to talk to each other! This quickly
snowballed, and Allestree people started to realise that many others shared the same
concerns: that Allestree is changing in landscape, and in environment. Gardens are
under threat, and lovely buildings are being destroyed.
An action group decided to meet, and take up the mantel of preserving the Allestree
that we love.
Members of this group have shared information, and supported each other in filling
in gaps, and sharing details with the wider community. We were horrified at the number
of local residents who knew little or nothing about these developers ravaging our
neighbourhood.
It seemed only a small step to decide to set up this website, and gather Allestree
residents together to act lawfully and reasonably, to protect our environment, and
this is what we urge you to do too. Join Us.
We have interest and support from all areas of Allestree, including residents on
Duffield Rd, Ford Lane, Lambourn Drive, Home Farm Drive, Gisborne Crescent, Kings
Croft, Park Lane, Cavendish Ave and it's growing every day. Neighbours are joining
together in a positive way to combat these unpleasant and unnecessary changes.
