Below gives an overview of some of our work;

2014  Staffordshire Moorlands Core Strategy Examination

September 2015:  Leckhampton Green Land Action Group (LEGLAG)

Based in Cheltenham LEGLAG formed over 20 years ago to save the countryside south of Cheltenham that sits under the Cotswold escarpment from housing development.  Lufton & Associates most recently represented them at a major appeal by Bovis and Miller Homes against the refusal of planning consent for the development of an urban extension to Cheltenham including provision for 750 dwellings.  Previously Lufton & Associates has assisted LEGLAG in making objecting to planning applications, with technical response to matters such as EIA and representing them at planning committee.

June 2015:  Save Sefton Park Meadows Campaign

Lufton & Associates engaged with the Save Sefton Park Meadows Campaign since June 2014 and have been carefully advising and providing professional objections and negotiation.  The campaign is particularly challenging in that the land in question is owned by Liverpool City Council who are the local planning authority.  The campaign is exceptionally well supported having almost 5,000 'likes' on Facebook alone.
