Who We Are › Our Values

Our Values: walking the walk, not just talking the talk…

Our core values don’t just exist in our strategy document or sit on a shelf, we actively work to demonstrate them in all that we do.

Integrity, impartiality, collaboration, inclusion, innovation, these aren’t just words, but the building blocks for everything we do as an organisation.  

Why? We believe in an inclusive society where communities are empowered to shape decisions about their place.  

How do we do this?  

  • Inclusive Participation: We support people to engage with the planning system. 
  • Community-Led Planning: We empower communities to shape decisions about their place. 
  • Learning and Innovation: We promote learning and reflection in everything we do. 
  • We prioritise approaches that address the global climate emergency and nature crisis
