Planning for the homes people need – various neighbourhood plans

Since 2010 we have provided support to numerous communities preparing neighbourhood plans. Whether in urban or rural areas, we have helped to guide them through the process, in particular ensuring that they engage properly with the community and nurture the relationship with developers to ensure that the plans provide a framework to deliver the aspirations of residents and businesses alike. Many of these plans have focused on housing development, the importance of delivering the types of homes that communities need and allocating sites that can maximise the potential to secure wider community benefits. Community growing spaces certainly are popular!
