Hindu community needs your voice. The South Cambridgeshire District Council is deciding which faith group receives dedicated land in Northstowe Phase 1 — and public support directly influences this decision. Follow this simple guide to submit your response today.
The consultation form has 14 questions — most are quick Yes/No or multiple-choice. Only 6 require a written response. Here is the full journey from start to submission.
Most supporters complete the form in under 10 minutes. Preparing your written answers in advance (see the guide below) makes the process even faster.

At Question 7 (based on attached pdf), when asked "Please select the proposals you would like to comment on," you must tick both options:
Select this first — fill the HSN section before moving on.
If you want to, select this second bid — fill the NCN section after completing HSN.
Most questions are quick Yes/No or multiple-choice. Only 6 questions require a written text response — these are marked in blue in the attached pdf (Questions 9–14).
You can skip any optional question if you wish — but the more detail you provide, the stronger your support will be.
