Hampshire Highways have confirmed that they will be excluding Petersfield from their treatment programme next year. There is a BUT – that it will require the community coming together to ensure that weeds are removed manually over next year so that no treatment is necessary in 2026.

Glyphosates are harmful to health and many have been lobbying for a change over many years.

Cllr’s Russell Oppenheimer is asking everyone to get behind the initiative.
