Merseyside residents have spoken out about plans for a new medical incinerator, which they say has left them fearing for their health and air quality.
Proposals for the facility on land off Stopgate Lane, between Bickerstaffe in West Lancashire and Simonswood in Knowsley, were given the green light by Lancashire County Council earlier this month.
Protests against the incinerator have crossed county boundaries, with people from Knowsley , Sefton and Lancashire joining the 'Stop the Simonswood Incinerator' group, which now has thousands of followers across various social media platforms.
