MORE BRILLIANT NEWS!!!!!

It gets better and better! Not only do we have the help and advice of Planning Aid on planning matters in general, today we have learned that we have been offered assistance by the Environmental Law Foundation specifically in the area of the environmental law.

See www.elflaw.org
for full details, some of which are given below:

The UK-wide Advice and Referral Service provides support and assistance in all matters relating to the law and the environment, using ELF's network of expert environmental solicitors, barristers, scientists and consultants, who help people resolve their environmental and community problems.

A&R provides initial advice and assistance over the telephone to communities and individuals experiencing an environmental problem. This can include practical advice on setting up a local group, with the caseworker assisting in identifying further steps that might be taken to develop a solution to the problem presented.

Should legal or technical assistance be required, the case is referred to a solicitor, barrister or technical expert for further advice. The initial consultation is free and any further assistance is provided free, at cost or at an agreed reduced rate.
