Planning and licensing consultation is at the heart of everything we do. We firmly believe that projects are most successful when local stakeholders are involved from the outset. Whether you are embarking on a brand new planning application, amending details of a project that is already underway or looking for advice on how to handle a challenging construction project, we can support you by providing:

o Strategy development

o Stakeholder research

o Political and community stakeholder engagement

o Effective public consultation (events and online)

o Public relations and press management

o Political and media monitoring

o Reporting, including feedback loops and Statement of Community Involvement, to reflect the consultation feedback and process.

We don’t just deal with the front end of planning projects – we see it through. If you choose to work with Comm Comm, you will have our team to advise and support you throughout the entire process, including construction. This includes working with you to resolve challenging relationships or situations that arise during the course of your project. This can be anything from helping to engage a concerned resident to addressing the spread of misinformation, meeting with political stakeholders or creating construction newsletters to ensure local communities feel informed.

We are excellent at mediation and diffusing difficult situations. We believe in building good homes and infrastructure and we find ways to help make it happen.

We work with an experienced team of talented designers, who help us to produce the very best materials for our clients. The best way to make an impact with your reports, presentations and consultation materials, is for it to be designed, branded and professionally produced. We can manage this process for you, creating visually impactful and attractive materials to support your project.

We also work with a specialist web designer to create effective multi-functional project websites, helping you to share information, update your community and distribute news updates. In a digital age, it is important and cost-effective to use online tools, which are easily updated and accessible.

We love events. Whether it is a community meeting or site visit, a promotional event or public exhibition, we can facilitate. We have dedicated team members who will help book venues and arrange any other equipment you might need (display easels, signage, catering etc).

We produce promotional materials, flyers, posters and social posts to advertise any event you are holding. It is important to attract the visitors you want to engage with, so we can help you with guest lists, letters and emails to ensure attendance. On the day, we will help staff and record the event, and we’ll write you an event report to feed back to your business.
