Herein copy of entire email that I received following completion of Wycombe District Council’s consultation on a new community stadium & sports village at Booker

Dear Supporter,

The results of the Wycombe District Council’s consultation on a new community stadium and sports village have just been published and we wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for your support.

The consultation generated a huge response with nearly 8,400 replies received by the Council. We are delighted to say that of these over 70% were supporting a new stadium and sports village at Wycombe Air Park at Booker.

This is a very positive step for a new stadium for Wycombe Wanderers and Wasps as well as a new sports village for Wycombe.

We have been ‘Backing Booker’ right from the start because it is the only site in the District that will enable our vision for a community stadium linked to a sports village to be delivered. Not only will it maximise the benefits for both Clubs but it will also bring new facilities and opportunities to the communities of Wycombe.

The consultation results strongly back this view and shows that the majority of people think that a new sports village with community sports facilities should be located alongside a new stadium for Wycombe Wanderers and Wasps and that the site with the most potential for this is at Booker.

The importance and value of sport to our society and in particular community based sporting enterprises was highlighted again at Christmas in the Queen’s speech. This public recognition of the great contribution sport makes to our daily lives further supports our vision to provide a new sporting village for the District.

However we now need to wait for the Council to meet on 17th January and decide whether to accept the recommendation to proceed to the next stage, as set out in the Wycombe District Council Cabinet report. We will then be in touch again to let you know the result of the meeting, set out what will happen next and how you can keep informed.

Until then we would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your interest and support so far. It is fantastic to have received such a positive response to the consultation and although there is still a long way to go we are buoyed by the results of the consultation and the huge amount of support we have for a new stadium at Booker.

Thank you
Mike Brooks
Chief Executive
