Welwyn Community Library is the venue tomorrow, Thursday 26 February 2-4 pm, for Welwyn Borough Council’s drop-in Local Plan consultation. If you want to know more about the additional housing planned for Welwyn and elsewhere this is the place to ask questions

We are taking our first steps towards creating a New Local Plan. This is your first opportunity to let us know what the key issues and opportunities are and what matters most to you.
