Since 1855, the residents of Ash Vale and surrounding areas have enjoyed access to Ash Ranges when not in use for military training.

This access was suddenly revoked in April 2020 with no consultation with the local council or community, and for no viable reason. In campaigning for access to be re-established, we have discovered that similar restrictions to access and/or to parking areas have been enacted throughout Surrey and Hampshire by the MOD, again without local involvement or consultation.

The fundraiser is to obtain legal advice from a QC who specialises in public law and human rights around the terms within the 1892 Military Lands act and 1976 Aldershot and District Military Lands bye-laws and the right of MOD/DIO of enclosing a space.

Any unused funds will be donated to Help for Heroes
