I live on the northern edge of East Grinstead and am regularly disturbed by noise from flights. We have to keep windows closed at night so that sleep is not disturbed and it was stressful bringing up children here as they needed to shout louder to be heard playing in the garden. (Redacted) and consider that living all my life close to gatwick has exacerbated my symptoms through poor air quality. Air was noticeably better when airport was closed by Icelandic Ash cloud and covid. My concern is that an increase in air traffic from a second runway will make both problems worse: more noise and poorer air quality
