Future
It was announced in July 2011 by the British Defence Secretary Dr Liam Fox that RAF Lyneham will be the new site of the Defence Technical Training Change Programme centre (DTTCP). This coincides with the closure of Arborfield Garrison, and The School of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering (SEME) at Bordon, both of which are due to move to RAF Lyneham by 2015.
Under current plans the land will be sold to Wokingham District Council who wish to develop the land which will include 3,500 houses, retail units and a Secondary School.

Famous quotes containing the word future:
“The planet’s survival has become so uncertain that any effort, any thought that presupposes an assured future amounts to a mad gamble.”
—Elias Canetti (b. 1905)
““Dark times” is what they call it in Norway when the sun remains below the horizon all day long: the temperature falls slowly but surely at such times.—A nice metaphor for all those thinkers for whom the sun of mankind’s future has temporarily disappeared.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Although I’m trying very hard
To sound unlike a birthday card,
That’s all this is: so you may find it
Full of all that lies behind it
Admiration; friendship too;
And hope that in the future you
Reap ever richer revenue.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
