PLANNING resources

Anyone who’s ever tangled with the Planning system will know how complicated it can get. Government policies, local policies, land banking, planning Appeals, site allocations, Local Plans, Neighbourhood Planning…

Well, CPRE has 90 years of expertise in our ever-changing Planning system. We can’t always provide direct support on every individual planning application – we’re a charity run by volunteers after all – but we are happy to share what we know.

Here are some short guides to get you started. We will add to them over the next few months… and feel free to request a guide on any specific Planning-related subject that isn’t clear.
