Pre-planning support
What pre-planning support does the Quality of Life Foundation offer?
Review developments
Quality of Life pre-planning support uses the Quality of Life Framework to review development schemes, inform masterplans and help create coherent visions for places. Our reviews focus on people’s physical, social and psychological wellbeing as critical objectives to ensure the best outcomes for people, places and the planet.
We invite you to draw on our health and wellbeing expertise to design socially sustainable homes and neighbourhoods for the long term.
Improve engagement
The Quality of Life Framework can also be used in the consultation and engagement process, acting as a framing tool to make conversations with communities and the work of design teams clearer and easier to understand.
We can facilitate those conversations in a way that creates a more objective and rounded approach to a local setting, taking in all those elements that are important to providing a better quality of life for all.
