As the planning system in England undergoes one of its most significant overhauls in recent memory, local plan teams are navigating a shifting landscape of expectations, timelines, and technologies. With the Local Plan 2025 reforms, there’s a clear message from government: local plans must be faster to produce, more accessible to the public, and data-rich by design.
Community engagement is a critical aspect of the local planning process, ensuring that local voices are heard, diverse perspectives are considered, and development strategies align with the needs of residents. As local authorities prepare a new Local Plan, effective engagement fosters trust, reduces opposition, and leads to more sustainable and inclusive policies.
As we close the year, it's the perfect time to reflect on the remarkable progress made possible by collaboration, innovation, and a shared commitment to enhancing community engagement. It has been a privilege to support your efforts with solutions designed to empower consultations and decision-making processes.
