Jason Hill has posted an "Economic Benefits Summary" on the planning portal.

http://publicaccess.staffsmoorlands....ageName=333638

extracts:

- Hill’s turnover will rise from £250m to £1.5bn between 2025-2032 with 97% of all aircraft
being purchased by overseas customers

- Hill will bring 500 ultra-high net worth clients to our global headquarters every year and
will stay in the area along with their families for two-week periods, offering a significant
boost to the hospitality sector

- Our visiting ultra-high net worth customers will spend a further £1.5m in-area with the hospitality
sector while they stay for two-week periods with their families**.

- Hill has agreed to provide an operating base, free of charge for the Stoke Air Ambulance,
providing critical care and emergency responder cover to the Staffordshire Moorlands
area.


- Some trepidation by residents and members is understandable in the short term*,



* I think the people who currently face the prospect of living next to a busy heliport might disagree with that!
** Will all 500 people really bring their families?
