A SECOND public meeting in Okehampton is planned to promote plans for a Senior Council for Devon with local involvement in the town. The meeting is on Thursday November 1, from 10.30am to 1.30pm at the Ockment Centre. The Senior Council is taking shape as public meetings across the county are drumming up a wide body of support. Okehampton already has some members, but this second meeting aims to generate more support. The Senior Council will be a fully independent, non-party political body that will use its considerable influence to lobby and be part of local policy making to provide better local services for the over 50s.
