Respondent: Miss Megan Herbert

Representation Summary:

I object as I think our countryside is very important to mental health. Walking around and generally being around nature is known to reduce stress, pulse rate and blood pressure. And even helps with depression which so many people suffer with these days, nature/countryside should not be taken away from us. Land was listed as green belt to keep the open space. Why should that change now ?
Also object as doctors are too full already. To get through I have known to ring over 100 times to speak to someone and get an appointment.
