More information about Planning Aid

Planning Aid provides free, independent and professional town planning advice and support to communities and individuals who cannot afford to pay fees to a planning consultant. It complements the work of local planning authorities, but is wholly independent of them.

It helps people to:

• understand and use the planning system;
• participate in preparing plans;
• draw up their own plans for the future of their community;
• comment on planning applications;
• apply for planning permission or appeal against the refusal of permission;
• appear at public inquiries.

More information is available via the Planning Aid web site - select the link in the right hand panel.
