About the Campaign
Why This Matters
Protecting What We Can’t Replace
The Quarterlands lies at the heart of the Lagan Valley Regional Park — a rare landscape teeming with biodiversity and natural beauty. Developments replace green spaces with concrete, threatening local wildlife and the long term health and well-being of our community.
Proud to be Friends of the Earth Local Action Group
WHAT’S AT STAKE
Biodiversity Loss
Further destruction of habitats for protected species.
Infrastructure Strain
Overburdened sewage systems and increased traffic.
Community Impact
Loss of green spaces and recreational areas.
