Standing Up for Rural Wales

Our Grassroots Network

Communities across rural Wales have taken a stand for fairness, safety, and respect. 
 
Over 300 farmers and landowners have launched  High Court legal action against Green GEN Cymru, which challenges what we believe to be unlawful access to private land, intimidation, and a complete disregard for basic rights and biosecurity. 
 
For months, "Land Consent Agents" have been turning up on farms without warning, ignoring biosecurity, bullying and pressuring people, and causing fear in our homes and farmyards. 
Elderly neighbours have been threatened with arrest. Children have been frightened by strangers walking in their fields. Families and small businesses are living in constant anxiety about who might turn up next. 
 
This is not a protest against renewable energy. 

Wales has always pulled its weight in powering the future - coal, steel, water, wind. 
But we will not accept abuse of power, coercion, or the total disregard for the safety of our livestock, our wildlife, and our communities. 
 
Land and livelihoods depend on trust, respect, and lawful process. 
That trust has been broken. 
Green GEN’s conduct has left people feeling unsafe and unheard in their own communities. 
 
This legal challenge represents more than one case, it’s a boundary marker for how rural people and their land should be treated. 

It asks a simple but profound question: 

Do Welsh communities have the right to dignity, lawful treatment, and a say in the future of their own land? 
 
We are funding this case ourselves. No corporate backing. No political machine. 
Just grit, determination, and the belief that fairness and respect still matter. 
 
Wales has been here before.  
We remember.  
We remember when our land and our voices were ignored. 
 
This time, we must speak for ourselves. 
 
If you believe Wales and the Welsh people deserve better, please help us share this story.

Field Study

While Justice for Wales will focus initially on the case against Green GEN, it is clear that this is a repeating pattern across Wales, the UK and across the world. If you feel you are under similar pressure, or have information you'd like to draw our attention to please share your story.
