A planning system fit for
climate, nature and people

About us

The Better Planning Coalition represents 34 organisations across the environment, housing, planning, heritage and transport sectors with one common goal: a planning system fit for climate, nature and people.

This broad range of organisations formed the Better Planning Coalition to campaign for the biggest upgrade to planning rules for at least a generation and are working together to influence the Levelling Up and Regeneration Bill and the forthcoming review of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF).
