Why you should attend this conference
LDFs have been in place for 5 years. Authorities that have seen the opportunity that LDFs present and have been able to work in appropriate ways have made LDFs work for them. Case studies will be at the core of the event, with speakers talking about making plans to do the job that is wanted. Others will give more general advice on how to succeed.
The conference aims to update and complement earlier LDF conferences by bringing together speakers who understand the needs of authorities, stakeholders and local communities. You will explore the continuing evolution of local development planning and look forward to the possibility of further change. There will be lots of practical examples of success.
Who should attend?
