Our services cover the full spectrum of planning consultation, political engagement and governance advisory work. Everything we deliver is led only by senior practitioners, ensuring clients receive clear judgement, accurate political insight and consultation outputs that withstand scrutiny.
Planning application consultation
Strategy, messaging, materials and events for planning applications, with consultation evidence that stands up politically, legally and reputationally.
Community and stakeholder engagement

Planning communications

Political risk advisory work
Political and governance assessment of sites, programmes and authorities, giving promoters and councils a clear view of approval risk before they commit time and money.
Local Plan and policy consultation
Design and delivery of Local Plan and policy consultations that meet statutory requirements and Council Statements of Community Involvement and still make political sense.

Structured engagement with Members and other political stakeholders, focused on decision making dynamics, risk and what elected Councillors need to see to support a scheme.
CPDs and governance facing programme advice
Briefings, workshops and CPD style sessions for officers, Members and partners on governance conditions, political risk and what that means for planning programmes.
