Community Planning

Services

We believe that sustainable development is most effectively achieved if it engages stakeholder knowledge and commitment at every stage of the process.

We use participatory techniques pioneered and honed over two decades to build collaborative visions for our projects with the very people who will go on to use them.

This means putting people at the heart of the creative process, unearthing the real needs of a community, empowering stakeholders, creating goodwill, inspiring community spirit and building consensus. Far from imposing ready-made off the shelf solutions, we build a Vision together. This leads to places that are vibrant, valued and sustainable from the outset.

These participatory techniques can be applied at any scale of project, and have been shown to accelerate the decision-making process, break down barriers and achieve a common sense of ownership. Together these create a shared vision for the future that is attractive to investment, whilst facilitating capacity building within local communities.

Our services include:

  • Community Planning Events
  • Neighbourhood Regeneration
  • Community Capacity Building
  • Stakeholder Charrettes
