Save Rural Southwater

Updated: Jul 27, 2023

Be sure to use your vote on Thursday 4th May to elect the new Horsham District Council.


What is your experience of HDC? Has it acted in accordance with the interests of the Southwater electorate? What are our candidates promising and how likely is it they can deliver on their promises?


Many of the councillors standing for election for Southwater North and Southwater South have made commitments in their campaign literature and social media. They have promised to honour the Southwater Neighbourhood Plan; oppose further mass development; and defend the Built Up Area Boundary.


Save Rural Southwater will scrutinise what happens after the election, to see that their actions are consistent with their promises when they start to work again on the latest version of the Local District Plan which runs to 2039.


The people of Southwater are overwhelmingly opposed to our village being a building site for the next twenty years, losing more farmland and countryside amenity, all to generate hundreds of millions in profits for Berkeley Homes, Aubrey-Fletcher Trust and Christ’s Hospital School.


We will be following the new HDC closely from 4th May onwards.
