Community Consultation

We provide independent public consultation services that improve engagement and save you time and money.

We support organisations to design and deliver effective and credible consultation by offering a complete range of consultation and engagement services. We work with both the public and private sector and consult on both technical and non-technical issues. All of our community consultation is bespoke to meet your specific needs and achieve the outcomes required.

We provide consultation and engagement support in many different sectors covering a wide range of topics, including planning (for developers and local authorities), regeneration, public policy, community cohesion, community energy, climate change adaptation and mitigation, waste and recycling and the management of environmental resources.

You can choose whichever level of support you need, from developing and delivering large-scale and multi-dimensional consultation programmes to individual services such as:

  • Facilitation of meetings, events, workshops and focus groups
  • Facilitation of design charrettes
  • Publicity resources
  • Consultation software and data management

  • Media and stakeholder liaison
  • Websites
