Supporting Business Continuity in Mole Valley

The week commencing 15th March is Business Continuity Awareness Week. Mole Valley District Council works with Surrey County Council to provide businesses and voluntary organisations with advice on Business Continuity Management. By doing this, we aim to ensure that local businesses are able to withstand disruptions and recover from them quickly.

As part of this, we have worked with other local authorities, the Police and NHS to develop a website, www.surreycontinuity.org to provide Business Continuity advice to the local and wider community.

Where should developers build in the future? Tell us what you think

From now until the end of March you can let the Council know where you think the new building that is required to be provided in Mole Valley should take place and also have your say about future development in Dorking, including what you think about building a new supermarket.

Two discussion papers were published by the Council on 17th February. One asks questions about where new homes, shops, businesses and related services should be built in Mole Valley over the next fifteen years or so. The other looks specifically at the issues facing Dorking including where new shops should be provided and how getting around the town can be improved.

To find out more about these discussion papers, please visit the LDF pages of the website.
