We provide creative, strategic solutions to even the most complex planning issues. Our proactive approach, combined with strong relationships with key stakeholders, puts you in the best position to unlock your site’s full development potential and achieve your planning goals.
We are a commercially focused team with up-to-date knowledge of the evolving planning landscape. We take time to understand your objectives and adapt our approach to meet new challenges, always working to build the most compelling case on your behalf.
We provide planning advice across the following development sectors.
Representing landowners, estates, farmers, and rural businesses, we provide expert guidance on sites—even in the most sensitive locations. Our advice is designed to unlock your rural enterprise’s development potential and make the most of available initiatives.
New developments of this nature often draw significant attention from the local community and may face specific land use restrictions. We work closely with key organisations to reduce risk and ensure our clients' operational needs are met, whether in the public or independent sectors.
Developments like care villages, elderly and dementia care homes, and assisted living accommodation demand in-depth knowledge of sector-specific challenges. We build robust cases based on demonstrated need, specialist design considerations, and regulatory requirements, while also addressing potential impacts on local services.
We assist with a wide range of home improvement projects, including the construction of ancillary accommodation and ‘granny annexes’, modifications for home working, and extensions to existing buildings. Our expert advice will help determine the permissions you need and guide you through the most efficient path to approval.
We work on residential projects of all scales—from single homes to large urban extensions and regeneration schemes. Our team can help you navigate planning obligations and take advantage of strategic opportunities, including land supply shortages, previously developed sites, and permitted development rights.
Whether you’re constructing new commercial facilities, repurposing existing buildings, or seeking a change of use, our expertise will enhance the value of your development. We can emphasize the economic and employment benefits of your plans, address concerns related to traffic, servicing, and noise, and conduct thorough sequential analysis.
There is a strong push for renewable and low-carbon energy solutions, alongside sustainable waste management, to be integrated into new developments. With both local and national policies influencing these areas, we can provide guidance on how to effectively incorporate these technologies into your project.
We prepare heritage impact assessments to support your applications, including any necessary consents like listed building permission. By consulting with us early, you can identify local heritage assets and address potential concerns, allowing you to move forward with your project more confidently.
Our expertise covers traditional developments like new hotels, holiday parks, campsites, and short-stay visitor accommodations. We also specialize in unique projects such as tree houses, shepherd huts, and other high-end bespoke accommodations. Our thorough site analysis will help craft a strategy tailored to your needs.
As the housing market grows increasingly complex, a wider variety of options are emerging—such as purpose-built student housing, extra care for the elderly, and co-living spaces for young professionals. We can guide you through the related planning obligations and help develop a strategy to secure the necessary permissions.
