In response to: Appeal Decision Means a New Pharmacy for Burpham

Many people expressed their concerns, leaving the decision-makers with little choice but to reconsider their decision.

It is disheartening that the application was initially denied by the faceless decision-makers, including the lead executive at Surrey County Council, demonstrating a lack of regard for the residents of Burpham. The need for the development was evident, and the current licensing process appears to be flawed, lacking transparency and rationality.

Despite these concerns, it is commendable to witness the power of the community coming together. We can now look forward to a significantly reduced waiting time and a more convenient journey.
