Thank you for consulting the Wildlife Trust regarding the proposed Gamlingay Neighbourhood Area.
The proposed area is within the West Cambridgeshire Hundreds Living Landscape, recognised as important for nature conservation, particularly woodland linkage. It also includes several nature conservation sites: nature reserves, SSSIs and County Wildlife Sites.
We would therefore like to stress that if this Neighbourhood Area is approved the Neighbourhood Plan must have a strong focus on biodiversity and nature conservation and consider carefully what level and type of development would be appropriate.
Please keep the Wildlife Trust informed of the progress of this application.
