A £ 6 million wind farm project has been given the go ahead in the south-east of England.
Through Westmill Wind Farm Co-operative the community will own and operate the entire project in Watchfield, near Swindon.
The Vale of White Horse District Council issued planning permission for five wind turbines, giving the green light for the first on-shore wind farm in the region.
Construction will begin in spring 2006 and the project will be 100 per cent community owned and provide enough green electricity to power 3,700 homes.
A public share issue will be launched this October with membership open to everyone interested in securing our shared future.
