Town & Country Planning Association

The Town and Country Planning Association (TCPA) campaigns for the reform of the UK’s planning system to make it more responsive to people’s needs and aspirations and to promote sustainable development. The TCPA occupies a unique position, overlapping with those involved in the development industry, the environmental movement and those concerned with social justice. The Association prides itself on leading-edge, radical thinking and problem-solving. Our objectives are to: - Secure a decent, well designed home for everyone, in a human-scale environment combining the best features of town and country - Empower people and communities to influence decisions that affect them - Improve the planning system in accordance with the principles of sustainable development
