Dear all,

With just over a week to go, and over 60 booked already. we wanted to provide a final opportunity for anyone to book to join us for our Rural Enterprise Exmoor Business Networking Day next Thursday 23rd November at the Moorland Hall Wheddon Cross. It will be an opportunity to meet with likeminded businesses and partner organisations, to catch up on what’s been happening and what is coming in the months ahead with a series of short informative presentations, business case studies and plenty of time for networking.

The day includes 2 sessions:

  • The first from 11am until 1pm is aimed at all sectors and we’ll be discussing the economy, making your business greener, growing your business, and planning matters.
  • The second session runs from 2pm to 4pm focused on issues most relevant to those in the visitor economy. During this session you;’ll hear about marketing plans for 2024, current projects, making your business more accessible and green, linking to nature, and an inspirational session from National Park and National Trust Rangers.

You can join us for either or both sessions as you wish – all tickets include a networking lunch in between and costs just £6 per person. Places are limited and must be booked in advance.

We do hope to see you there,

Dan

Road sign damage

Published on by Lesley WebbLeave a comment

For the 4th time in as many months the road signs on the main road have been deliberately damaged.

We believe that the recent vandalism occurred on Monday 6th November after dark. To pull the signs out of the ground must have required a large vehicle, such as a tractor. All of the damage has occurred between the Old Dairy and Knowle Manor.

If you have any information about this vandalism , or who might be on this part of the road with such a vehicle at that time of night, please contact PCSO Linda Moden at : Linda.Moden@avonandsomerset.police.uk
