Forsythia House in Brockley, is a small 3 storey block of council flats in an area densely populated with children and near to schools. The antenna system appears huge and imposing and evokes a fear of radiation in almost everyone in the vicinity. Masts have been successfully opposed in other nearby locations and this has only gone ahead as there was absolutely no consultation. Recently, the residents of the block unanimously opposed the construction but the council has permitted its construction anyway. We want the council to have the equipment removed and conduct a proper consultation for a suitable site to meet Vodafones needs.
As the manager of a local community nursery situated in very close proximity to the mast - I am concerned at the lack of consultation and consideration of location and of the negative impact this may have on the health and wellbeing of the residents, children and their families.
