1st of may is referendum day!

If you live in the Batchworth Community Council area, you will have received your voting forms for 1st May 2025 – this is not just for County Councillor elections, but also to vote on whether the Batchworth Community Council Neighbourhood Plan should be adopted.   If you have a postal vote, you will receive a referendum form with the County Council election forms.

The plan has been under construction for 5 years by a resident led Steering Group on behalf of Batchworth Community Council.  Many reviews and consultations have taken place to get it to this stage and we would like to thank all of you who took part.  Below you will find all the final documents plan that has been submitted for the referendum along with the supporting documents.
