Better Places is a two-year research project with the University of Reading. It aims to develop the practical means of influencing development planning decisions and social value by gathering and spatially-mapping data related to communities’ quality of life. It builds on our Places First research which set out an alternative vision for planning to deliver good growth. Below are the research papers in this series.
