Enabling

Our advocacy and enabling programmes directly address change in the built environment and support the capital’s decision-makers in finding creative, effective and innovative solutions to issues affecting both neighbourhoods and the city as a whole. These include the provision of housing that is affordable, sustainable and well-designed and built; the planned and gradual greening of our capital, particularly in the context of energy concerns; and the creation of places where people want to live and work.

Our enabling programme is a natural progression from the engagement that we have been undertaking with council members and communities over the last decade. Building on this experience, we have the ability to provide independent and impartial advice and support to councils and communities on their roles in delivering “localism”.

The enabling strand of work seeks to directly address:

- design quality in policy, particularly in spatial planning including the proposed Neighbourhood Plans and Development Orders, and
- design quality in projects, particularly in Community Land Trusts and the proposed Community Right to Buy/Build and local Asset Transfer.
