To Whom It May Concern at Aston Martin

We, the residents of Upper Lighthorne, are writing to express our deep distress and urgent concerns regarding the helicopter landing site operated by Aston Martin adjacent to Birdhaven Close. The persistent noise and disruption caused by the frequent take-offs and landings have profoundly affected our lives, infringing upon the peace of our village and the safety of our homes.

For several years, we have endured the invasive roar of helicopter blades spinning mere meters from our doorsteps. The south half of our village bears the brunt of this disturbance, but the reverberations of your actions are felt throughout our community. The tranquillity of our environment has been shattered, replaced by the constant apprehension of another unscheduled flight disrupting our sleep, our work, and our well-being.

The use of this landing site, which lacks the requisite planning permission, is not only a flagrant disregard for local regulations but also a dismissal of the health and safety of those it affects. The repercussions of this activity extend beyond mere inconvenience; they touch upon the very essence of our mental and physical health. Children, night shift workers, and the elderly are particularly vulnerable to these disruptions, which have become an unwelcome fixture of our daily lives.

It is disheartening to note that despite the initial denial of planning permission, the flights have not only persisted but expanded in frequency and duration. The absence of accountability or acknowledgment of wrongdoing on the part of Aston Martin, even in the face of concerted efforts by local councillors, the united voices of our village, and a public petition, is deeply troubling.

We implore you to consider the gravity of our situation. We seek an immediate cessation of these flights and a commitment to finding alternative solutions that do not compromise the sanctity of our homes. We are a community in distress, appealing to your sense of responsibility and humanity to rectify this situation.

We trust that Aston Martin values its neighbours and will take swift action to address our grievances. We look forward to your response and a resolution that restores the peace and safety of Upper Lighthorne.

 

Respectfully,
