Formed in 2004, we are one of the UK’s largest and independent planning consultancies. With over 30 senior planning consultants and regional operating centres throughout the UK, AFA Planning Consultants specialise in obtaining planning permission for clients in the; residential, commercial and agricultural sectors.
We Make Success Our Business
We are always 100% up front in our recommendations and give honest verdicts based on any initial consultation or appraisal. Thanks to low overheads and no large bureaucracy to finance, we can offer a highly competitive service. And we always provide clients with clear quotations of fees before starting any work. In fact, we often quote a maximum fee and then invoice for less.
As our business continues to grow, we are always looking for Chartered town planners through the UK to work for us as consultants. The work would be on a part time as well as a case by case basis, allowing you to work from home. Planning work would always be outside your own Authority area and never where there is a conflict of interest.
This course is aimed at both householder appeals and Section 78 appeals. It examines the content of Circular 03/2009: Costs Awards in Appeals and Other Planning Proceedings, and the looks at basis for applications for costs. It provides information on avoiding costs against your Authority and sets out scenarios where an application for costs against appellants is appropriate. The course content includes:
Green Belt policy is viewed in many circles as one of the most successful aspects of the planning system over the last 40 years or so. This course gives an insight into Green Belt Policy and what a Planning Inspector will be looking at in the event of an appeal against refusal of permission on Green Belt grounds. The course content includes:
“Writing proofs of evidence and giving evidence at PIs – having a folder with notes/guidance for future reference should be very helpful.”
“The structure of the courses followed a natural progression and helped build an understanding. The advice was practical and could easily be applied in daily work.”

With this knowledge and insight, you can have confidence in any strategy we outline to help you deal with your planning concerns.
