You may be aware that Thurrock Council has received an application for a mobile phone mast to be installed off Fenner Road.
I have advised the Planning officers in the Council that residents object to this mobile phone mast and have asked that the application be heard by the full Planning Committee. The date for this will be set in the near future.
In the meanwhile, if you too are against the installation of a mobile phone mast next to residential properties and schools, please click here to sign our online petition against it, or visit this website: http://www.nomastsonchafford.org/ for more information by clicking on the topic above.

The article below extracted from the Daily Mail newspaper makes for a concerning read:
A mobile phone company is to remove a mast from a block of flats after seven residents were struck down by cancer.
Three have died and another four have battled the disease since two masts were erected on the roof of the five-storey block which has become known locally as the Tower of Doom.
The cancer rate on the top floor - where residents of five of the eight flats have been affected and the three who died all lived - is 20 per cent, ten times the national average.
Residents of Berkeley House in Staple Hill, Bristol, also complain of terrible headaches and other ailments which they blame on radiation from the masts.
