Premier Inn appealed the decision - please help fight this!

We still need your help to fight this application

Thank you for helping us get the building of this needless monstrosity refused by Cornwall councillors.

But this is not the end of the story.

We need your continued help. Premier Inn have appealed the Council's decision. We used £2,000 of your wonderful donations providing evidence to the planning hearing, which certainly influenced the Cornwall Council decision to deny planning permission. But now, cynically and at the last minute, Premier Inn have lodged an appeal. This will go to the Planning Inspectorate and we need to show that the people and lovers of St Ives do not want this carbuncle spoiling our town. We still need your help to defeat this ghastly imposition on St Ives.

Who we are

We are a group of concerned citizens of St Ives who are opposing this unwanted and unneeded over-development of our small, beautiful, heritage town that is important locally, nationally and internationally.

How will we use the money raised?

The money raised will go on our campaign to fight the appeal – including professional fees. In the happy event that the cost of this is less than the donations, we will donate the money to charities benefitting St Ives – particularly the elderly (eg Age UK Cornwall) or those needing housing (eg St Petrocs).
