@BritishGas 3 calls and my move in date date is still incorrect! On hold 25 mins last call only to be cut off mid call.. turns out your Cape Town call centre peeps can’t understand my English accent. Which is ironic since I lived there for 10 years.

Last month, we heard of an instance where an LA had said that 2 years of assess, plan, do, review was required before requesting an EHC needs assessment.

This is unlawful.

Here's a reminder of some of the common myths & unlawful policies surrounding EHC needs assessments 👇

We're disappointed with the result of the wild camping legal challenge. We'll consider our position before deciding if to appeal and also discuss with landowners.

We maintain wild camping is key part of open-air recreation, a way to enjoy Dartmoor.
