Devon CPRE Members’ Planning Surgery – 20th October 2020

Have you got a planning question you’d like to ask, or planning topic you would like help with? Please join us virtually via Zoom for the second in our series of planning surgeries, on Tuesday 20th October 10.30am-12noon where our Planning Consultant, Jo Widdecombe, will be there to help.

Our first planning surgery was held on 29th September and focussed on Torridge & North Devon – a wide range of topics were discussed and our members feedback was that ‘it was brilliant’ and ‘amazingly helpful’!

The 20th October surgery will be open to all members from any part of the county. So if you would like to attend, and/or have a question, please email to Penny on info@cpredevon.org.uk The Zoom link to the meeting will then be emailed to you.

This is a great opportunity for our members to benefit from expert planning advice and we look forward to seeing you.
