Ryebank Fields Community Group is working with professional planning consultants on an ALTERNATIVE PLANNING APPLICATION (APA) to retain Ryebank Fields as a COMMUNITY WOODLAND AND MEADOW. Our PUBLIC COMMUNITY CONSULTATION will go live, this Saturday 3rd May.

If you value your local green space in #Manchester please consider signing the Alternative Planning Application for @ryebankfields ASAP - the other option is an application to destroy them for 100 executive homes. ryebankfieldscommunity.co.uk/?fbclid=IwZXh0… #PostboxSaturday #health #MentalHealth

Object to this planning application.

Growth or green - @bbcquestiontime #bbcqt These fields in #Manchester are under threat of ‘development’. Rare trees here, some 130+ years, wildlife & 25,000 locals would lose their local green space. Save @ryebankfields & the #health & #mentalhealth of the people up north.

@saverimrose This is amazing news! So very pleased for you all.

Still processing yesterday's announcement and will be in touch again after half-term with a more detailed response, including next steps. Hard to believe this has happened. Thanks so much for your support all these years - it's what kept us going! bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

‼️LAST DAY‼️⏳ Developer Consultation ends 23:59 on 1st November. Head to ryebankchorlton.com and let them know what you think. There are already homes on Ryebank Fields 🐾🌿🪺🕸️🌳 Any questions, check our website or email: Ryebankfieldsfriends@gmail.com

@ryebankfields Most of it was greenwash and spin but this was just appalling! Mr Harinder Dhaliwal in his role as Managing Director of @Step_Places must know that @ryebankfields is #greenfield so why would he say this?

Q Why are you doing this? Harry - “Classed as a Brownfield site” (NB this is MISINFORMATION -we will link to info on this later..) Stopped listening to anything else he said at that point…!

@Step_Places @Lexcommuk @5plusarch and @SouthwayHousing Ryebank Fields are #GREENFIELD land. Can you really be this many years into developing a scheme and not know the land’s classification?! Or are you deliberately spreading misinformation? #DirtyTactics @CommunityPlann1

Next month. A public meeting. Also coming soon another exhibition style consultation by MMU's chosen developers said to be taking place early autumn with a possible planning application early next year.

How much better this looks already! Don’t forget to fill in the consultation and let the council know what local people need. fcrp-manchester.co.uk

APPROVED 2,388 expensive apartments in 5 skyscrapers Labour Party in Manchester are fuelling a housing crisis for developer profit. Includes: Peloton spin space, a dog spa, Mahjong Room, virtual golf driving range Does not include: Any affordable/social housing

🙌A huge thank you 🙏 to the members of the @Unite_Community GM branch, for voting to support our campaign to Save Ryebank Fields!! ✊There were so many great ideas about how at your meeting. Looking forward to that picnic, let's get it in the diary while the sun is shining! 😎

In statements provided by candidates before local elections in 2021 it was claimed that councillors had got their 'red lines WRITTEN into the Development Framework' making them MATERIAL CONSIDERATIONS. This was not the case, and that claim has been withdrawn.

@bellaclare1 @spartanmatt_w @Craftipsych @mathewhbenham Unfortunately this misinformation regularly crops up. As this appears on a thread you started @mathewhbenham it would be great if you corrected it, at the same time perhaps countering the ‘handful of NIMBYs’ comment, as well as belittling your constituents it is also incorrect.

Ryebank Fields has been rewilding for 30 years, that’s the length of time it takes to get meaningful shade from a tree @WoodlandTrust @theTCPA @Lancswildlife @rtpiknowledge @CIEEMnet yet #BNG agreements in most cases will only last 30 years 😕 Please protect Urban Greenspace 🙏🏼

Increasing numbers of bats found '"underweight" or "starving"'. Long term fall in numbers of the insects bats eat, due to pesticide use - a scarcity sharpened this year by an extremely rainy summer. What can be done to support these incredible creatures? theguardian.com/environment/ar…

✊ BLOCK THE BLOCK are back... and this time it's legal! 👊 They are planning to take Manchester City Council to the High Court over a controversial decision to approve plans to turn the former Gamecock Pub into a PBSA block. @publiclawcentre @gmlawcentre
