The latest from the East of England

RTPI East of England Regional Chair 2013

Peter Warner is Chair of the RTPI East of England for 2013.

His theme is 'Support Your RTPI - It Is Here For You and Your Professional Development'.

Peter says: "My challenge, as Chair for 2013, is to get us all engaged (or re-engaged) with our own professional development and participation in the Institute - our Institute. I regard it as a great privilege to be nominated as Chair of the RTPI East of England. Over the years, I was given the incentive by my employer to be engaged with the Institute - provided I got the day job done. It has given me a freedom to work on projects that as a young planner I would never have dreamed of - but it happened for me and it can happen to all of us provided we have the vision to succeed whatever the difficulty or setbacks.
