Save Wilmslow's Greenbelt

The Butterfly Bank area is a cherished green space in Wilmslow, home to diverse wildlife, beautiful wildflowers, and a peaceful retreat for the community. However, this vital habitat is under threat from an adjacent 120-house development by Jones Homes in Cheshire East. Access to the proposed site would be from the cul-de-sac at the end of Welton Drive.

Recent Government changes mean the Local Plan is no longer protecting the Greenbelt land, and developers are taking advantage of this loophole.

We are a group of local residents, nature lovers, and conservationists determined to protect this productive farmland from destruction.

Butterfly Bank is not just a greenbelt field —it is a sanctuary for butterflies, birds, and other wildlife, and an irreplaceable part of our community’s natural heritage.

We need your support to fund legal advice, planning assessments, and a campaign to challenge this development. Every donation, no matter how small, helps us fight to keep Butterfly Bank safe for future generations.

Join us in standing up for nature and preserving this vital green space!
