Campaign for Real Aires UK - CAMpRA

Thanks Steve. I've already replied to him asking for a more comprehensive answer re the 1960 Act - citing other Councils/LAs up and down the country who have managed to circumvent this 'law' by providing parking of and sleeping in 'vans overnight. Also mentioned re Councils having prerogative to iss...

I'm in a similar position as yourself: I am currently communicating with Scarborough BC re overnight parking of & sleeping in motorcaravans - SBC being another very large tourist area who have a blanket ban on overnight parking for us in vans. Of the 40 or so Councillors I emailed, only 4 have r...

After sending my email to over 40 SBC Councillors, I have so far received 4 replies: two very positive. One, in fact, saying that SBC are addressing/reviewing the matter and hoping to have an answer very soon, whilst another from Cllr Abbott stating: "This has been going on for a long time, not...

I forwarded my original email (& photo of the empty car park) to Cllr Bill Chatt Scarborough BC. Maybe everyone who is interested in this topic could send their own email to a member/members of Scarborough BC? In the meantime, I'll try to get an email address mailshot list together and will post...

Robert Goodwill replied, and I'm still waiting to hear back from a Labour member of the Scarborough BC. I'll chase that up next week (attaching Robert Goodwill's email thread).

Update to my previous post - I have sent this reply/suggestion to Mr Goodwill: Dear Mr Goodwill Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to my email regarding lack of motorcaravan overnight parking in your constituency. I have passed on your reply to CAMpRA (Campaign For Real Aires). Could I...

Here is my reply from Robert Goodwill MP. Sadly, the actions of the very few motorcaravanners are colouring the view of this Local Authority - they just don't seem to want us spending our cash overnight in their car parks and local businesses 😕. Here is the text of his reply (NB I'll reply stating I...

Great idea - short walk into Hornsea

Update on my email to Copeland DC earlier this week. I have received an 'interim' email today (below) - I won't hold my breath 🙄: Good morning, Thank you for your email. I will certainly pass this information on to our Tourism Development Officer, in order for her to provide you with an update on th...

I agree. I sent them this reply. Why is the promotion and defence of motorhoming so fraught with prejudice and difficulty 😕! Thank you so much for replying Clara. It is such a shame that motorcaravanners cannot contribute to the Trust, even on a small scale in the form of payment to use your water/w...
