🟩PLANNING PERMISSION🟩

We are thrilled to have gained planning permission for a client in North Leicestershire for 3 new build dwellings on a contentious site with a flooding history. After careful and considered liaising with the local authority and specialist consultants on flood defences, we have strived to ensure that flooding isn’t increased elsewhere.

Fantastic work by all involved! 👏🏽

Ever considered a pre-planning application? Depending on your project, the pre-planning process may be worth considering. Your local authority will advise of any concerns or issues with your project that may result in a planning refusal, and highlight any additional information that may be required, saving you overall costs and time. We can put together a pre-planning application for you, give us a call on 01162779600 and we can discuss further.

🟩PLANNING PERMISSION GRANTED🟩

We received planning approval for extending Enderby Grange Care Home in Leicestershire. An additional 15 en-suite bedrooms and improved accessibility throughout the existing building will help to create an even better environment for residents and staff and create 30 new jobs.

Our client, Sagar Raja of Midlands Care said, “It’s a project shaped by thought and purpose, not just planning policy. Addressing the growing need for high quality specialist elderly care across Leicestershire.”

We are very pleased with the outcome and look forward to seeing the project through to completion for Midlands Care.
