Reading-based law firm Blandy & Blandy hosted Women in Planning, an event designed to provide networking opportunities for women working in the planning industry.

The event featured a presentation from associate solicitor Sabah Siddiq on Community Infrastructure Levy, and talks from solicitors Harjinder Brah and Louise Low who discussed title matters to consider when preparing a planning application and the judicial review process.

Sabbah Siddiq said: added: “It was our pleasure to have had the opportunity to host this Women in Planning event on current planning matters and we were pleased to see so many members attended the event and to hear that the presentations were helpful and informative. It was also great to catch up with everyone following the presentations.

Women in Planning is an independent network with the aim to promote a diverse, equitable and inclusive planning industry.
