Planning Aid for London provides free support on town planning and development. We work with people and communities in London who cannot afford professional support.
If you care about your home and neighbourhood, you need to know a bit about how planning works. The planning system can seem complicated. But it’s vital in many decisions about our future. You might want to reduce pollution in your high street or get more play spaces for children. If so, you will need planning. Planning Aid London is here to help you find your way through the process.
