NO TO EAST HAVERING DATA CENTRE
Welcome to the campaign against East Havering Data Centre development. It is reported to be the largest data centre in Europe requiring 600MW of power, and is being planned to be built on 200 hectares of the greenest of Metropolitan Green Belt Land. If this sets a precedent, the floodgates to destroying Green Belt will be open. It will never be restored.
About Us
We are a group of concerned residents who want to preserve the Metropolitan Green Belt, premium agricultural land, and ecology in the village of North Ockendon, on which the East Havering Data Centre, the biggest data centre in Europe is planned to be built. The impacts are more far reaching than many residents realise, and will be felt beyond North Ockendon residents. This will set an irreversible precedent, which will be our legacy to future generations.
How will it affect you?
Impacts will be felt far beyond North Ockendon.
