Camden Blueprint Project

The Localism Act provides the legislative framework for the Governments vision of the Big Society. Included in the Act are changes to the planning system to allow people to develop their own local plans giving them greater power and ownership over policies and plans that affect their local area. This is called neighbourhood planning and CamdenCEN has been working with two very different communities in Camden- Bloomsbury and Somers Town- to explore how the planning process works. We aim to develop a Camden Blueprint by the end of December 2011 and share the learning with other communities and with borough planners.

Please visit our Camden Blueprint page or Neighbourhood Planning page for further details.

Bloomsbury Village Project: Planning exercise at St Georges Church (5 December)

A Planning for Real type exercise took place today at St George's church in Bloomsbury. 35 stakeholders from the local community arrived to participate in a visioning exercise for the area putting forward and prioritising 'real' ideas on how to improve and develop the Bloomsbury Village area. Community safety, environmental improvements and housing were among the top topics of interest.
