ANTI-FRACKING protestors will meet tonight to raise their concerns about the impending plans of drilling in Horwich.
Several councillors have voiced their strong opposition against the plans after revelations that the government had offered a licence to drilling firm Osprey to carry out exploratory work on land covering Horwich, Blackrod, Rivington and Belmont.
At the first public meeting of Horwich and Blackrod Against Fracking, representatives from organisations, residents, and members of political parties and groups will be invited to voice their questions and concerns.
The meeting will be held at 7pm at Horwich R.M.I in Ramsbotton Road.
