East Hampshire District Council is working with specialist engagement consultants Meeting Place to support the preparation of the new local plan.

During November, Meeting Place representatives will be speaking to residents and businesses across East Hampshire, particularly people whose views may not always be heard through traditional consultation methods. The aim is to hear a wider range of local experiences and perspectives.

This engagement is separate from, but complementary to, the formal Local Plan and Supplementary Plan scoping consultations, which will start on 7 December 2026. It does not replace formal consultation or predetermine any planning decisions.

Meeting Place is undertaking this work on behalf of East Hampshire District Council. If you are approached and would like to know more, you can contact the council for confirmation.
