Neighbourhood Planning Workshops 21/06/2011

The new Localism Bill is going to introduce some changes to Neighbourhood Planning through such things as the Community Right to Build and the encouragement of communities to own their own plans. With this will come some specific technology needs and Slider Studio will be holding a series of workshops next month to explore what these are and how they can be met.

The workshops will be a chance to:

• Discuss the emerging neighbourhood planning process

• Discover existing tools to prepare and review plans

• Imagine new tools to help you plan a neighbourhood

• Share your ideas and experiences in web and digital tools
