Flora Archer reflects on a busy few weeks in Norfolk

It's been a hectic few weeks, including a fantastic young member event at the Goat Shed, two well-attended pre-harvest health and safety events, several farm walks and the Royal Norfolk Show.  

Encouraging the next generation is a key county priority so I was really pleased to see so many people at our young member event, with Director of Communications James Clark taking us behind the scenes of the Stop the Family Farm Tax campaign. Read more about it below.

Meetings stop now for harvest but your county and regional team will continue to be busy, including getting our MPs out of farm to highlight the issues facing the industry.

I hope everyone has a successful harvest.

 

Surveys and questionnaires

Have your say on devolution in Norfolk and Suffolk

A consultation is under way concerning the future of local government in Norfolk and Suffolk.

The Government wants to bring councils together to create new unitary authorities, replacing existing borough, city, district and county councils.

The councils involved want to hear from residents, including the rural community, about how this should look in Norfolk and Suffolk. You have until 1 August to have your say via a short survey.
