Please Support Us

Stop Hinkley started in 1983.  It is our supporters that have enabled us to continue campaigning since then.

  • Please   Donate with PayPal button to support our work.

We have a long and successful record campaigning against nuclear power at Hinkley Point and Oldbury. We campaigned vigorously on the dangers connected with running Hinkley ‘A’ and as a consequence BNFL reluctantly shut it down permanently in 2000.  We have worked with regional BBC and ITV documentaries to highlight the risk from the crumbling old reactor at Oldbury.

Now Hinkley Point is the site for the first of a possible series of new nuclear power stations in the UK, if it ever gets finished!  Already EDF are trying to wriggle out of their promise to fit an Acoustic Fish Deterrent (AFD) to the huge water intakes collecting cooling water for Hinkley Point C.  We must make sure they shoulder their environmental responsibilities.

The suggested annual subscription is £12 for an individual (£5 unwaged) or £20 for a family. We ask supporters to donate as much as you feel able, but whatever you give, however small, is gratefully received. Subscriptions are renewable in February each year.

What is the real cost of nuclear power?

No one knows, until the final bill for dealing with the waste has been totted up in thousands of years. EdF and the UK government are planning to dump the waste, and the costs of managing it, onto future generations.

Stop Hinkley was founded in 1983

We played a major part in the 14-month public enquiry in 1988/9  and continued to campaign for alternative renewable energy sources and energy conservation measures.

The closure of Hinkley A was announced in May 2000 as a result of our campaigning.
