Words of Thanks...

Dear Susan,
 
Yes, a great day indeed! I'm only sorry I could not be more active myself. Too busy here in Brighton, I'm afraid, but you've been fortunate having Ben Fogle campaigning with you, such is his high public profile. I always like reading his column in the newspaper.

Hi Susan

Just to congratulate you and everyone concerned with the campaign which was
fought with such wonderful tenacity and eloquence.  Thank you for all the
hard work and commitment which was without equal.

I'm sure that another planning application will be waiting in the wings but
that is another day, another dollar.


Regards

Mary Rivett

Hi Susan,
Yes absolutely fantastic news!!
Well done to you Vicky and all the team -we certainly could not done it without an organised CAFE. Let the voice of the people be heard-and eventually it was.(Including Parliament square!!!) Kind regards and well done to all the team,
Cynthia

Hi Susan.
Well done to you and the team. Democracy rules (at least I hope
so).

Thanks again for all your effort. There should be many people who are
grateful to you all.

Kind regards


Neil

Yes what good new re decision on Eco Town and mainly to all Cafe's hard work and time given to the protest.  It is much appreciated. 
Thank you all.

Great news - well done! We just moved here from the congestion of Kingston
on Thames, to escape to the country, let's keep it a rural paradise.

Hi to all the Cafe team and many, many, many thanks for your hard work and the eloquent way you were able to put our case forward. I cannot begin to imagine how much time this has taken for all of you - your well researched arguments were certainly very important - as were the protests you organised. We owe you a large debt of gratitude. I just wanted to let you know your efforts have been very much appreciated - thank you for saving our way of life.
Regards

Huge congratulations to you all. We consider ourselves very lucky to have 
had such a dedicated and knowledgeable committee to lead us and spur us on 
at any sign of flagging....you did a brilliant job and we are very grateful
. Best wishes

 Many thanks for keeping me posted

It is a terrific result and says huge amounts for the power of local people
 when they organise and work together.  Congratulations especially to Vicky 
(and Terry Knott before her) for leading such a team and to Susan and all 
the people who quietly kept the communication going and shouldered a lot of
 the unseen work.

CONGRATULATIONS  to you all and thank you for all your hard work.

Nice one Susan,
 And thank you for all YOUR hard work, when you could have been forgiven for concentrating upon finding gainful employment! 
And a big thanks to Brian too.
 Great job both of you!
 As ever,

Terry

Delighted to hear the good news.  I read the Ben Fogle article also today,
which waas very good.  I had feared that the govt juggernaut would win.

 Well done, and very best wishes

We would like to congratulate the campaign team . If you had not been there , we are sure the result would have been very different. We really appreciate all your hard work and expertise.
 
Thank you all very much.

Dear Vicky
We are so pleased at the decision to abandon this misguided development.
You have done so much hard work and the organisation of the whole campaign was textbook stuff.
A sincere thank you from us and hundreds of others who will also be breathing a sigh of relief.

Best wishes
Christine and Ian Llewellyn

We wanted to send an immediate and hearfelt 'HUGE THANK YOU' to all of you who have worked so hard on this campaign which has resulted in yesterday's good news.
 
We believe all the effort has made a difference - and hope and trust this really is the end of the matter for Ford.  We shall no doubt have to continue to be on our guard!
 
regards and best wishes
Michael and Judy Simmonds

Congratulations on all your hard work - wonderful result and everybody concerned should be proud of what they have achieved!

Hello Vicky and All,
Many congratulations and thanks for all your hard work in defeating the Ford Eco-town proposals. However, FAVG's reaction (that they will continue to try to build on Ford) means that we cannot relax our vigilance. Nevertheless, you have defined the criteria that they will have to meet before any building can be contemplated.

Regards,
Ray Penny

To Vicky Newman and all the CAFE committee (including Terry Knott!)
I'm sure that this will be only one of hundreds of communications of congratulation you will be receiving. The whole locality owes you a huge debt of gratitude for your unstinting effort over the last 18 months to preserve the heritage of our three villages. You must take great satisfaction from the news today that the Ford site is not included in the four nominated by this government. Both MP's have quite rightly given the CAFE group great credit, both in the House of Commons and on TV/radio and we as a community can only echo this! Enjoy all the plaudits and the champagne - they are richly deserved!!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for working so hard on our behalf -
Margaret

Dear Susan,

Congratulations on your leadership of this important campaign. For your
interest, attached a copy of my letter, sent today.
Best wishes,

Tim Simpson

More to come...
