Planning Aid for London
Planning Aid for London is a registered charity and company that helps communities and people who cannot afford professional advice with planning matters. They also have many guides and leaflets to support people engage with planning which can be accessed on their website.
The Campaign for the Protection of Rural England has a guide that explains the planning system and how to get involved with planning applications. As the gas holders are located within a large area of Metropolitan Open Land, their advice on protecting the green belt is relevant to the development.
