Event Description
Our Rural Update returns to take a look at how the changing face of planning is affecting rural areas and what we need to be aware of as planners to navigate these changes and ensure we deliver the best outcomes for rural areas. The event will include the ever-useful legal update and will explore the recent broader changes to the planning system, as well as delving into specific changes affecting areas such as agriculture, energy and affordable rural homes.
