About the seminar

Longmores Solicitors invite you to their seminar for rural landowners and businesses.

We will be joined by two guest speakers who are experts within the rural community.

The Country Land & Business Association (CLA) will provide an update on the issues impacting their members and the key policies they are working on.

Chloë Edwards, Director of Nature Recovery at the Herts & Middlesex Wildlife Trust will tell us how the Trust’s ambitious plans for nature recovery involve everyone, and how through collaboration they aspire to restore nature, and the essential services delivered by a healthy natural environment to business and society.

The panel of speakers will then answer questions from the audience after which you are invited to stay for canapés, cheese and wine and the chance to meet the speakers and to network.
