POWDERHAM Castle has invited the neighbours in for a chat over plans at the venue for the next year.

Residents living in Kenton near the historic Grade I listed castle as well as businesses and community groups have been invited along to hear about upcoming events and ask questions.

The community meeting will also be a chance for Kenton residents to raise concerns or suggestions about how events might impact the surrounding area.

Events, including concerts, can attract thousands of people to the castle grounds.

A spokesman said: ‘The session will be a chance to hear more about upcoming events and plans for the yer ahead as well as ask questions and share feedback directly with Powderham and event organisers.

‘It will also be an opportunity for people to learn about how we are working to minimise disruptions and strengthen community benefits.

Youre input is incredibly important to us as we continue to shape events that celebrate Powderham while respecting and supporting our neighbours.

‘We hope you can join us for an evening of open discussion and collaboration.’

The meeting is being held on Wednesday November 5 6.30pm to 8.30pm in the Music Room, Powderham Castle.

Refreshments will be provided.
