Organising events

Organising a public event of any size can be complex and stressful. The district council manages the North Norfolk Safety Advisory Group (NNSAG). Its role is to promote good safety standards at all public events in the district and ensure best practice is followed.

The page links below may be helpful to you as an organiser for such an event.
