  • June 17, 2020 Dear Constituent Thank You Very Much for Taking the Time To
    June 17, 2020 Dear constituent Thank you very much for taking the time to write to me about the Velindre Cancer Centre plans and the ‘Save the Northern Meadows’ campaign. As the Member of the Senedd for Cardiff North I have given careful consideration to constituents’ views on the planning application by Cardiff and Vale Health Board (20/00357/MJR) to build housing on the northern meadows in Whitchurch and I have come to the conclusion that I must oppose the extension of this planning permission. I have never believed that there should be housing on this land. I opposed proposals to build housing on it in 1995, in 1997, 1998 and in 1999 I spoke out against building housing on the land at a public inquiry. I have always supported the development of a new cancer hospital and that is still my priority, and I believe it is the priority for the vast majority of my constituents. One in two of us will need treatment for cancer in our lifetimes. Anyone who has ever needed treatment at or visited Velindre knows that the hardworking staff and very ill patients desperately need a new building. I believe supporting it is the right thing to do. Having now seen some of Velindre’s vision for the site, I really believe it will be therapeutic for those patients who are desperately sick to be surrounded by nature in a building which incorporates as many natural elements as possible and blends into the landscape. The design ideas I’ve seen would mean a building akin to the light and calm of Maggie’s (the cancer support centre) – it will be poles apart from the concrete high-rise blocks of UHW at the Heath.

The town has been inhabited since Roman times and is still a thriving market town. This North Shropshire market town has many buildings dating from Medieval ,Tudor and Georgian times. Whitchurch is amongst the oldest continually inhabited towns in the county. Within the town is the wooded Victoria Jubilee Park and picturesque Memorial Garden. Named Mediolanum by the Romans and chosen for its strategic location, Whitchurch soon had legions passing through to reach the outposts of Roman Britain. The town was the heart of the Roman road network, a fact reflected today, and one that makes Whitchurch so central and accessible for visitors. The Whitchurch firm of J B Joyce (tower clock makers) was established in 1690. Whitchurch Heritage Centre hosts information on J B Joyce for visitors. These clocks have an international reputation and can be found on cathedrals and palaces from Singapore to Kabul. Many examples of Joyce’s work can be seen around the town making Whitchurch “the Home of Tower Clocks”. The town is surrounded by beautiful countryside and there are walks along the North Shropshire Canals to Grindley Brook and through the Whitchurch Waterways County Park, also a haven for wildlife and containing Greenfields Nature Reserve managed by The Wildlife Trust.
