Even if you are not in Stanton then you may still be at risk. Public Health England cite research that states: "a small potential increase in risk of congenital anomalies for children born within ten kilometres of MWIs"and "While it is not possible to rule out adverse health effects from these incinerators completely, any potential effect for people living close by is likely to be very small."This is the kindest conclusion out there. Other studies cite cancer and birth defects including cleft palate. So not to scaremonger, please do your own research - search terms such as 'incinerator health risks' and 'incinerator risks to children' might be helpful. It's a difficult area as incineration standards are improving (there's a risk they may be relaxed as the UK voted against stricter EU standards in 2019!), and incinerator sites are often in deprived areas where health is poorer.
WE DON'T BELIEVE AN INCINERATOR IN A DENSELY POPULATED AREA IS A GOOD IDEA.
