The event - Rock Off - aims to raise cash to cover legal fees involved in fighting an appeal by waste firm Britaniacrest Recycling to build a recycling, recovery and renewableenergy facility in Warnham.

The fundraiser is being organised by the campaign group No Incinerator 4 Horsham and is to be held at Horsham’s Rec Rooms on August 2.

Peter Catchpole, Ni4H chairman said: “Our group, our barrister and specialist experts have been able to pull together all the strands of evidence into a substantive and compelling case, on behalf of all our residents to put forward to the Planning Inspector in October. We still need to continue to raise more money, to ensure we can afford to have full representation at the Public Inquiry, so that our powerful reasons for rejection can be given full force.”
