Popham Airfield Matters
A living part of our community - where people fly, learn, meet, and connect with the countryside.
Popham isn’t just an airfield. It’s a green, open space full of life, home to deer, hares, kestrels, and barn owls. It’s where generations have learnt to fly, where local people come together, and where nature still thrives untouched by development.
Turning this landscape into housing would erase something irreplaceable - a place that belongs to everyone, not just pilots.
Act now. Once it’s gone, it’s gone

We have kept lifetime membership to £1 so that cost isn't a barrier to supporting us. However, we do need to raise money to pay for hosting the website, printed flyers, banners, membership cards and postage etc. In the future there will be consultants, legal fees and publicity to pay for, so we need to set up a Fighting Fund.
Please use your Credit or Debit card or PayPal to donate if you feel able.
If you don’t want to join just yet, but you do want to be kept informed of our progress, please sign up for updates below.
