There isn’t much greenbelt to enjoy locally except Tong Valley.

Walking there is great for stress levels, we get clean air and exercise. The views are lovely.

Having previously worked in Bradford, I am aware that a lot of it is.. well.... derelict.

These buildings already have the infrastructure in place, why is the priority for new housing to build in to the greenbelt when there are so many of these sites that could easily be renovated without destroying a beautiful area?

Many of the buildings in Bradford are used by squatters and injecting drug users. Regeneration would not only be cheaper than new builds but would address some of the issue here also.
