It is important to understand that employing a planning consultant does not guarantee your application will succeed. But it does mean you have expert advice and help to ensure your application has the very best chance. Many planning consultancies work on a national basis and though they may not have an office based in this specific region, their offices in neighbouring areas and further afield will carry out work within this region. The rear section of this leaflet lists those consultancies that also operate within this area or please visit www.findaplanner.co.uk

Included in this leaflet are firms of solicitors, including legal members and legal associates of the RTPI.
