See below for abbreviated Noise Management Board reports
The Noise Management Board (NMB) was set up as a result of the Gatwick Independent Arrivals Review. The core role of the NMB is to develop, agree, oversee and maintain a co-ordinated noise management vision and subsequent strategies for Gatwick on behalf of stakeholder organisations. The main aim of this work is to reduce the impact of noise on the local community.
