Vision For Helensburgh
We have reached the next significant stage, and we need your help again.
On 4th July, our judicial review into Argyll and Bute Council’s plans to develop a supermarket on the waterfront will be heard at the Court of Session in Edinburgh.
We have saved money by representing ourselves in the early legal stages, and sought out the most affordable legal support we can. Now we need to fundraise for court fees and a contribution to the legal fees. We estimate this could be as much as £30,000, on top of the £8,670 that we previously raised.
If the judicial review is successful, we expect Argyll and Bute Council will have to re-run the process to choose the plans for the waterfront, including a genuine public consultation. This could stop the supermarket development in its tracks.
We have therefore set a new crowdfunding target of £38,670 and would ask, if you feel you are able, to contribute to our campaign?
We know this is an expensive process and, at a time when money is tight, we know this is a big ask. If you have friends or family from the area who have moved away or enjoy visiting please forward this on to them as well; every little bit helps.
