How we Work
Placemaking cannot be effective without integrating:
​​
-
a well considered planning strategy
-
a clearly communicated vision based on an understanding of who will live there or use the place created
-
everyone working together toward shared outcomes – the design and technical team, landowners, developers, public authorities, stakeholders and the community
​
At Co-Creation UK, we believe we are unique in being able to bring these 3 elements together from the outset.
-
We identify opportunities we believe in for our clients
-
We listen & take time to understand
-
We seek to build trust between all those involved
-
We identify and nurture common ground
-
We adopt a bespoke approach to every project
-
We are creative and innovative thinkers
-
We clearly communicate at every stage
Who benefits?
​
-
The developer – collaboration within the consultant team, with stakeholders with the community results in greater efficiency and certainty over the outcome; avoiding costly delays, eg appeals.
​
-
The community – having a genuine say over what happens; feeling listened to & respected; being able to influence the outcome and shape change; understanding how a scheme will address any impacts and deliver benefits to the community; a higher quality scheme.​​​
​​
-
The public authority – better considered or less contentious schemes means less time and cost in seeking changes; avoiding costly appeals and a better designed scheme.
