RTPI Cymru
RTPI Cymru promotes planning as a profession and builds links with other built environment professions and organisations throughout Wales.
We offer members a programme of affordable seminars and events to assist with their continuing professional development requirements, and also publish Cynllunio, a regular newsletter for members.
We have a membership of just over 1,050 planners, drawn from the Welsh Assembly Government, National Parks and local government, private consultancies, the education sector and other organisations working in the field of planning.
We welcome the views and opinions of all our members, and we are always looking for volunteers to help with running our programmes. Please email us or call Georgina Roberts on 029 2049 8215.
