A commitment to positive impact

This commendation reflects LUC's dedication to delivering positive impacts on communities and places through our full range of planning services.

We collaborate across disciplines, working with our in-house GIS, transport, heritage, ecology and landscape teams, as well as external partners, to guide clients and influence policy at both national and local levels.

Measuring our impact

Measuring our impact is crucial to our employee-owners. We strive to create better futures for people, nature and places through our work.

Our commitment to diversity and inclusion, with a team that is 63% women and strong representation at senior levels, further demonstrates our dedication to positive change.

We also actively support the next generation of planners through graduate programs and apprenticeships.

Innovation in digital technology

In addition to the commendation, LUC's innovative Herefordshire Natural Environment Evidence project was a finalist for the Award for Use of Digital Technology in Planning.

This project, commissioned by Herefordshire Council, demonstrates how digital tools can revolutionise the planning process by providing accessible and interactive data for informed decision-making.

LUC extends our congratulations to all winners and fellow nominees. We are honoured to be recognised for our commitment to excellence in planning and placemaking.
