Place Planning Partnership (PPP)

Remit

The Place Planning Partnership's remit is to:

  • develop coherence in joint working arrangements
  • better understand the requirements of Community Planning Locality Plans, Local Place Plans and Borderlands Place Plans
  • develop joint workforce training in Place and locality working

  • develop peer learning across our communities
