This website has been set up by Greenbelt Group Action - a group of homeowners from estates across the UK who are working actively to:

• tackle the problems homeowners are experiencing with Greenbelt Group and other land-owning land maintenance companies like them such as Meadfleet, Scottish Woodlands and Ethical Maintenance
• push for changes in legislation and public policy.
   

The aim of this website is to:

• unite estates who are experiencing problems with land maintenance companies
• provide information on what's being done at a regional and national level to address our issues with land maintenance comapnies
• provide tools to help homeowners take action on their estate and in their area.
   

We're currently in touch with more than 200 estates across the UK that have reported problems with Greenbelt Group.

WHAT WE WANT...

For the past four years we have been calling on the UK and Scottish Governments to:

• intervene to stop developers from inserting seemingly illegal monopoly burdens into the title deeds of tens of thousands of homeowners
• introduce planning policies that ensure developers are forced to hand common land to either communities or to councils.  Greenbelt Group acts as a land bank for developers - Greenbelt Group owns the land around your homes in name only
• stop local authorities from signing off these seemingly illegal land maintenance arrangements as fit for purpose
• urge Trading Standards, the Office of Fair Trading and Consumer Focus / Consumer Focus Scotland to protect homeowners from harassment and bullying by Greenbelt Group
• we have pushed successfully for additional legislation in Scotland – we now need homeowners in England and Northern Ireland to do the same…

We are currently refreshing the content of the website to provide more up-to-date information to homeowners across the UK - in the meantime, extensive information is available at the West Myreton Residents website
