What’s New in the NPPF – and what does it mean?

This year’s Planning Workshop will be held at the Exeter Court Hotel, Kennford, EX6 7UX and is free to all members as well as Councillors from Town & Parish Councils who have group membership of Devon CPRE. This workshop will focus on the newly revised NPPF (National Planning Policy Framework).   Presented by our experienced Planning Consultant, Jo Widdecombe, we’ll be looking at the fairly major changes which have been introduced by the government, what they mean to the planning process and what’s important.
FREE admission for Devon CPRE members, and member organisations (up to 3 people free per member council), including refreshments. £15 per person for non members.

Please book your space(s) by contacting Penny Mills on: director@cpredevon.org.uk or 01392 966737.
