All set for WYG Week in Wellington

Report this content

The first week of October sees the return of WYG Week, a series of events over a five day programme to say thank you to our clients as well as offering an occasion to network with other professionals working in the built environment.

Award winning consultancy WYG, which has a regional office in Wellington, will host a variety of seminars and evening networking events nationwide focusing on topical industry subjects commencing on 1 October 2012. 

To celebrate WYG Week, the Wellington office is holding a breakfast seminar and will deliver a presentation on topical planning issues in the residential sector within the south west region, with guest speaker Christopher Young from No 5 Chambers. An insight into the full range of services offered by WYG Planning and Environment across the south west will also be covered. The event will take place on Monday 1 October at Rumwell Hall, Taunton, an elegant venue in a pleasant parkland setting.

This year, the emphasis will on the Planning and Environment services and will boast a larger client and employee invitation list and larger venues making the events bigger and better than ever before.

Tim Holden, Managing Director of WYG Planning & Environment said: ‘We’re delighted to be able to celebrate another WYG Week. This is the ideal opportunity to say a big ‘thank you’ to our clients and colleagues who have worked so hard on many challenging and rewarding projects throughout the year’.

Tim added, ‘Planning has rarely featured so prominently in the economic and political arena. The Government’s intention to introduce further changes to the planning system will, I think, raise new opportunities and challenges for us all. We will be exploring these opportunities through the various events we have planned. We hope everyone associated with WYG will join us in celebrating what I am confident will be a successful WYG Week.’

WYG’s Planning and Environment service offers innovative, practical and cost-effective advice that helps clients make informed investment decisions and gain successful outcomes from the planning system. Their planning services fall into three main categories – town planning, landscape & design and environmental planning – the scope of which range from preliminary site appraisals through to preparing and submitting planning applications and accompanying documentation.
