The Royal Town Planning Institute (RTPI) has set up a Planning Aid England (PAE) Giving Scheme to encourage donations to help support its work following the reduction in PAE’s funding from Government. The new scheme was launched at the RTPI Planning Convention in London.

Richard Summers, RTPI President said:

“I’m very pleased to announce that we are launching a Planning Aid England Giving scheme today to enable RTPI members and others to help support the vital work of Planning Aid England.

Last year almost 33,000 people and over 900 community and community organisations were given help by Planning Aid. The donation scheme is part of our strategy to diversify our future funding sources as we have had a two-thirds reduction in what we receive from the Government.”

Planning Aid England provides free, independent and impartial planning advice to communities and individuals who cannot afford professional fees.

Donations will only be used to support the work of PAE.
