Newington helps clients secure planning consent


Newington helps clients secure planning consent

We are pleased to announce further successes for a number of clients over the last month. Through strategic communications, political understanding and effective engagement across the country, we are very proud to have helped our clients on projects involving all tiers of local government and various communities.

  • Newington helped Swan Housing secure planning consent on their mixed-use redevelopment of the 1960s Laindon Shopping Centre located in the heart of Laindon, Basildon. The scheme was approved unanimously across four political parties, and a local residents’ association voiced support for the application at Basildon Council’s Planning Committee.
  • Newington assisted Taylor Wimpey in securing planning consent for their residential redevelopment in Lindfield, Mid-Sussex. Despite a negative local backdrop and a previous refusal, Mid Sussex’s Planning Committee approved the application 7-2.
  • Newington provided support to Osborne in securing planning consent for their 529-unit student accommodation scheme, with a 12-2 vote to approve at Chichester District Council’s Planning Committee.

The Newington team has a strong understanding of the political and community landscape and can provide effective strategic advice. With five offices across the country (London, Edinburgh, Manchester, Birmingham, and Essex), we would be happy to advise on current projects and offer political appraisals for future projects that you are considering. Please get in touch with Pavitar Mann for more information.
