Planning communications, stakeholder engagement, community consultation and neighbourhood planning support services
Our planning communications work
We have handled all types and kinds of projects, including the contentious, the high profile, and the complex. From energy to housing, from commercial developments to public space: our team has experience of supporting every type of development.
Two of the projects we have been involved in have received awards for community engagement: work on St Crispin’s in Northamptonshire was commended by the Prince’s Trust as a demonstration of best practice in community engagement, and our coordination of communications for the team remodelling Trafalgar Square in London received a commendation in the Construction Marketing Awards for the best use of public relations.
