Local Events Planning Diary
is displayed on the Parish Council’s notice board
opposite the school in Bishops Lydeard.
You can also ask for a copy of the latest diary to be e-mailed to you.
Its purpose is to help anyone planning a public event locally
to avoid clashing with other events
and so to maximise potential audience / visitor numbers.
You can contact the planning diary by
e-mail: local.events@live.co.uk;
post: 2 Park View, Taunton TA4 1LX; or
phone: 01823 430 321.
Give as much notice as you can - currently, there are events scheduled up to the end of 2010 - and include the following information:
Date (inc year) / Event title / Venue / Start (& finish) time / Event Contact details / Your own contact details
