Our Purpose & Our Ethos
We unashamedly aim to be the best planning consultancy supporting local authorities.
Working together, as one team, we want our people to create the finest and most enjoyable firm to be a part of, where everyone recognises that individual self-esteem is gained through belonging to a highly successful and admired team.
Our working methods and practices shine through to our clients. They love working with us and they come back to us repeatedly. Word then spreads to others who also become our clients.

Building long term relationships
We aim to sustain the growth of Local Planners by exclusively serving local authorities, building long-term relationships where we can add value.
Satisfied clients value our contribution to progressing their success and share our desire to build long-term mutually beneficial working relations.

Life balance
At Local Planners, our home lives are as important as our professional lives. We aim to strike the right balance, while accepting that each team member has their own balance to achieve.
We seek to strip out the tasks in our working lives which do not play to our strengths and belong with others in the team. This fulfils our professional lives and enhances our professional enjoyment, our effectiveness and our contribution.

Passionate about what we do
We enjoy the work we do and love working with our clients. Ultimately, we share in the joy that comes from delivering successful outcomes for our clients.
Our aim is that when any member of Local Planners decides to retire, they would readily say: “I would do it all over again”.

Delighting our clients
At all levels of our organisation, in all our dealings with clients, our aim is to delight and exceed expectations.
