Welcome
Welcome to the 'No Laybrook Landfill' Campaign website, created by Thakeham Village Action (TVA) to raise awareness of and encourage support for our fight against a rubbish landfill tip at Laybrook brickworks (where's that?).
Cory Environmental propose to dispose of 4.1 million tonnes of rotting, stinking waste at Laybrook, damaging our health and environment for decades, if not centuries to come.
Please take a look around the website to find out more including how you can help make the 'No Laybrook Landfill' Campaign a success.

Campaigners against the landfill have put together this video that highlights some of the key issues with landfill and the proposal for Laybrook.
