Who are we

We are a coalition of Councilors from Little Baddow, Boreham Sandon, and Danbury Parish Councils and concerned residents who refuse to sit idly by while our rural haven is transformed into an urban sprawl. Our diverse group is united by a shared commitment to preserving our region’s natural beauty, tranquility, and heritage for future generations.

Our Mission

Our mission is clear: to challenge the shortsightedness of the Chelmsford City Council and demand responsible, sustainable development that respects the needs and wishes of residents. We believe that unchecked expansion at Hammonds Farm will place an intolerable burden on our infrastructure, exacerbate traffic congestion, and irreparably damage our environment.
