Latest News From the Campaign

Two recent reports from Smart Growth UK raise significant concerns about the Government’s push for large new settlements, including the proposed new town at Adlington.

This weekend our campaign team took to the road, bringing the message about the proposed Adlington New Town directly to neighbouring towns and villages.

Today, our supporters showed out in force at Tatton Park for the Cheshire East Council meeting to remind councillors we’re still here.

On Saturday 7th March, we’ll be taking the Adlington campaign on the road.

We’re setting off in a decorated minibus to visit surrounding towns and villages to raise awareness about the proposed development in Adlington and speak directly with local residents about what’s happening.

Canalside Radio’s Nick Wright, today interviewed the leader of Cheshire East Council, Nick Mannion. Amongst the discussions of devolution and council budget, the Adlington New Town proposal featured.

Following the protest at Tatton Park we have some more events planned.

Details are still being worked out so watch this space.

• 7th March 2026 - Roadshow Awareness Campaign
• 18th April 2026 - Community Planning Alliance Day of Action

The next Cheshire East Council meeting will be held at Tatton Park on 25th February and we intend to have a presense there to ensure that Adlington is not forgotten about. There will be an opportunity for members of the public to speak and we will post the details once they become available.

Today marked a historic moment for our campaign, the largest turnout we have ever seen, with over 600 people standing shoulder to shoulder in support of Adlington.

We were delighted to be featured on Silk FM yesterday, as they covered the Adlington New Town proposal and helped spread the word across Cheshire.

Local residents from Adlington appeared on GB News today to voice concerns about the government’s proposed new town development in the area.
