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.
