Community infrastructure
Delivering local needs and priorities
We understand the importance of ensuring that new homes are supported by the right infrastructure. The proposals have been designed to deliver benefits for both new and existing residents, alongside investment in local services and facilities.
As part of the planning application, we have engaged with key stakeholders, including the Parish Council, to understand local priorities and ensure the proposals respond to the needs of the community.
