Campaigners are celebrating tonight after Brent Planning Committee refused the planning application to site the London Welsh School in Wembley's King Edward VII Park.
The application was defeated decisively with 6 votes against and 1 abstention.
Denise Cheong and other residents, helped by local councillors, fought a spirited campaign reaching deep into the local community.
Denise and Paolo Di Paolo both spoke on behalf of residents and Cllrs Stopp, Hossain and Mitchell-Murray addressed the committee.
It was unfortunate for the London Welsh School that the chosen site was so controversial. The school is unique and very special and I hope they are sucessful at finding a more suitable alternative site.
