PlaceChangers Engage
Interactive planning consultations made easy.
Engage more people online, deliver better results, and work faster.

Director, JDDK Architects
Being able to offer quite specific information that people can locate on a big site helped us to create more targeted conversations that moved the design forward."
Sharon Mackey
Lead Designer, North Tyneside Council
We can sometimes spend hours/days preparing for consultation events which might only give us 2 or 3 useful responses. The PlaceChangers platform has saved a lot of time and we are able to have much more targeted conversations, which is better for everyone involved.
