Residents in the Liskeard and Looe area can get updates and ask questions about local priorities at a speed dating style event as part of a Cornwall Council Community Network Panel meeting on Wednesday.

There will also be a talk by Iain Barker on the work of the Cornwall Wildlife Trust and a discussion of Lanteglos Parish Council’s proposed highway lengthsman scheme.

Cornwall Councillor Jim Candy, who will be chairing the Liskeard and Looe Community Network Panel meeting, said: ‘This should be a lively session as it starts with a speed dating-style event where the panel and the public can bring their ideas and discuss how we can improve the A38 and other infrastructure, promote employment and workspace, and promote South East Cornwall’s tourism potential.

‘It’s a great way to find out more about the panel’s work on local issues, and everyone is welcome to come along.’

The agenda also includes updates from councillors on the Man Engine, the Looe Trail, a meeting with a Government minister to discuss the A38, and the Local Enterprise Partnership.

The network panel includes all eight Cornwall Councillors for the area and representatives of the 18 parishes in the community network.

The meeting will take place on June 29, from 7pm to 9pm, at St Keyne Village Hall.
