A new Friends scheme has been launched by Planning Aid for Scotland (PAS), that gives members a range of benefits to help them on their journey through the planning maze, and anyone can join the scheme.<\/p>\n
For \u00a325 a year members can attend the annual Friends event, receive a weekly planning news e-bulletin and free entry to a quarterly prize draw to win a \u00a325 Waterstone\u2019s token.<\/p>\n
Friends also have the chance to attend PAS training events for free or reduced prices and by recruiting another friend help spread the word about the importance of understanding planning.<\/p>\n
Kathryn Hume, Friends scheme co-ordinator, said:<\/p>\n
“The Friends scheme has always been popular among planners, PAS volunteers, with community councils and others who understand how planning affects their lives. \u00a0But planning is also important to those working in housing, construction, regeneration, the environment and a range of other professions, who need to know what planning can do for them, particularly at a time when we need to work more efficiently and with limited resources.<\/p>\n
This new Friends package gives a range of exciting benefits for current and future members and we welcome anyone to join us and reap the rewards of better engagement with the planning system, through PAS.\u201d<\/p>\n
