The Leisure Consultancy win another legal planning case

The Leisure Consultancy win another legal planning case

The Leisure Consultancy was commissioned by Linden Homes to support a planning application for the development/re-development of cricket, football and linked social activities on two sites in Totton, part of the New Forest District Council.

The Leisure Consultancy’s work included:

• Liaising with AFC Totton, Totton and Eling Cricket Club, and Totton FC in relation to: facilities required; programming; management and operation
• Review of the strategic market context
• Liaison with Sport England and National Governing Bodies

The output of this work was a comprehensive report which justified new outdoor purpose built sports facility provision enabled through residential development. Subsequent to this The Leisure Consultancy prepared a report as part of evidence for a Public Appeal which was held in October 2008. Eileen Hinson, a director of The Leisure Consultancy appeared at the Appeal as an ‘expert witness’ on behalf of Linden Homes. A decision has now been made by the Secretary of State in favour of Linden Homes – this maintains The Leisure Consultancy’s remarkable success rate in providing expert witness advice.
